I don't think you are overreacting at all. I think it is interesting how the 90s fear of AI was "What if they punish us for all the horrible things we have done?" and now it is "But it's a whole new way capitalists can screw us over and exploit our humanity..."
I think it speaks to how devious most publishing companies are, how much they are hoping to cut the author out their "revenue streams" that they haven't managed to sue the AI companies out of existence on copyright grounds.
