    You realize it wasn’t just massive corporations that had their works taken, right? And that is a key reason why so many people are concerned about an AI/LLM company taking the work of others, and using it for their own profit?

    Thinking this is limited to NYT or Getty is ignorant at best.

    Not to mention the migration of that goal post.

      I am aware what the datasets contain.

      I don’t see non-profit AI drawing less rage, so I don’t believe that the concern is about AI being used for profit. Maybe, when you say “for their own profit” this is another special expression like “taken” (by which, I believe, you mean copying without authorization)?

      I don’t really know why so many people are coming through for the rich. I am not an eat the rich kinda guy, but giving them money for nothing is just absolutely bonkers to me. What I know is that a lot of people were simply hoodwinked. I strongly suspect that others feel that they have to support that because of some ideological conviction. But eventually, I simply don’t know what’s going on with that. It’s why I originally posed the question.

      IDK what you mean by “migration of that goal post”.
