Does anyone know whether there any licences or licence derivatives - like the various flavors of Creative Commons - that currently restrict usage by AI LLMs?

(i) An Oscar Meyer promotional periodic table with the fake element of 'Bolonium' (Bo) [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pohXWbMrXZI #delicious
(ii) And in the season 13 episode 'The Bart Wants What it Wants' Springfield Preparatory School has a periodic table with over 250 elements!
I have these three on my shortlist: (i) The Art of Electronics (3rd edition), written by Horowitz and Hill; (ii) Digital Design and Computer Architecture: ARM Edition; and (iii) The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles, by Nisan & Schoken
But keen for more.
"To understand why, consider someone who spent three months of the year receiving unemployment benefits while they searched for a job, then worked for nine months. The government considered their income for the entire year and averaged it, then assessed their eligibility for payments based on their average fortnightly earnings – not their income when they were out of work and therefore eligible for payments."
"The ecommerce giant recently backed out of a commitment to make 50% of its shipments net-zero carbon by 2030. Amazon said in a statement that it would roll this goal into a broader Climate Pledge to reach net-zero carbon across all its operations by 2040. That's a decade later than the 50% goal, which was called "Shipment Zero" at the time." [0]

Also worth noting that this is a target. And targets can always shift eg 2040, 2050, etc

What I am trying to better understand is why there is a preference (morally, legally, societally) for for-profit organizations.
Is it because (most) people are inherently profit-focused, or, that it is just the way things are? Amongst many other possible options.
In the context of organizations, not-for-profit doesn’t mean they are designed to be not profitable; rather, it means their primary goal is focused on other goals than making the most amount of profit possible.
It’s also a misnomer that not-for-profits can’t make profits, it’s just that those profits are not distributed to the capital (owners, investors) of the organization.
One can still receive many financial rewards in not-for-profit organizations: a high wage, payments, etc. without those rewards being ‘unlimited’ in scope.
As an experiment, imagine if the FAANGS and the BATs of this world were not for profit organizations; appreciating the role that venture capital played for all of them so maybe the experiment is that they wouldn’t exist!
What I struggle to understand is the relationship between the financial interests of humans (extending between the two extremes of billionaires on one hand and absolute poverty on the other) and organizational design in the west.
In other words, revenue is not profit and wages are still income, so why does the current system benefit capital (owners, investors) to such an extent.
Could we live in an alternate economic reality - maybe one that is ‘fairer’ if more of our for-profit organizations were not for profits. Or is that a fallacy?
What does that say about our societies that we have embedded the profit motive in (most) organisations?
Worth noting that obviously there are many not for profit organizations, just that they are largely clustered in the fields of health, education, social welfare, etc.
And also note the difference between (unlimited or at least not capped) profit and earning or being paid a living or even high wage. People often confuse the ability to earn a ‘good’ wage and a very high wage.
Or would the Foundation then have to divest of its ownership of Raspberry Pi Trading once it is listed?
Is Raspberry Pi Foundation an entity or sub-entity of Raspberry Pi Trading, or just an affiliated organisation where Ebon Upton has roles in both organisations?
Very likely some artists have released LPs in the 'streaming era' that are the opposite of Adele's wish; that is, they have no set track listing.
