We shouldn’t be affording companies the ability to profit off other people’s creations without their consent, and despite the intentions, that's basically how current copyright law works.

A long form response to the concerns and comments and general principles many people had in the post about authors suing companies creating LLMs.

    This isn’t how it works at all. I can, and should, and do, read and consume all sorts of media with the intention of stealing from it for my own works. If you ask for writing advice, this is actually probably one of the first things you’ll hear: read how other people do it.

    So this does not work as an argument, “the intent of the reading” because if so humans could never generate any new media either.
