I know, it’s hard to bring nuance to this. The current copyright system is completely fucked. I think we still need some sort of copyright, but one that expires after like 10 years after first publication. I would actually be fine with everything being used to train AI models, if AI wouldn’t require ungodly amounts of resources and the companies wouldn’t be owned by tech bro assholes. If it would belong to us all, be free to use and not burn down our world even quicker, AI would be fine.
