"stealing" implies the owner does not have it anymore... It is large studio speak.
And I get what you are trying so say, I just think the copyright system is so broken that this shows it is in need of reform. Because if the qualm is with people doing immoral shit as a business model, there are long lists of corporations that will ask you to hold their beer.
And the fact that the training of the models already occurred on these materials means that the owners of the current models are probably training on generated datasets meaning that by the time this actually hits court, the datasets with original copyrighted materials will be obsolete.
Regarding obsolete models, that's only partially true. There's loads of content that are effectively "finished" and won't be changing, and will grow obsolete at a fairly slow pace. Meaning they'll be useful in the models once trained for years.
Obviously new technology and similar ideas/content that didn't exist when the model was created won't be there, but the amount that changes and or is new is relatively small each year compared to all the historical content.
Well that's a well articulated reply.
I don't understand why you would take this position. Because the small artists will never be able to avoid Beiing included in training sets, and if they are what are they going to do against a VC backed corpnlike OpenAI. All the while the big copyright "owners" will be excluded. Meaning this only cements the position of the mega corps.
