Smart move. They also clearly understand that AI is here to stay and it's better to embrace it rather than fight it. This will give Japan an unhindered advantage while the rest of the world cries over who allowed a computer to look at their artwork.

The absolute right decision. Generative art is a fair use machine, not a plagiarism one. We need more fair use, not less.

To me it’s essentially the same as someone reading a book or watching a movie when the AI learns from those examples.

@brimnac it's not a 'someone' though. The AI isn't an actual consciousness. It's a software company illegally using other artists work to develop their own commercial product. BIG DIFFERENCE.

You learned from those same things and make a profit.
