What do copyright holders receive in return? I can get behind the appeal for technological advancement, but the only way this argument can be made in good faith is if we also mandate that any AI model trained on publicly available data be open sourced and released into public domain.

Maybe this would be an appropriate time to talk about abolishing copyright altogether rather than entertaining the idea of making exceptions for AI, i.e. tech oligopolies.
