The problem comes when people actively don't want to further the training of AI. It's not so much about not accepting that you cannot own ideas as it is about not wanting to contribute to a thing that you believe is going to result in greater suffering for most people.

I think the only way to ensure that these days is to not allow data to ever leave your computer under any circumstances. I have no doubt Microsoft is using the software I published to train its copilot thing, I published it with that understanding. My only problem with this is the hypocrisy of it all. Microsoft won't allow their people to even look at at AGPLv3 code lest they unconsciously reproduce it but they will let the AI look at AGPLv3 code while conveniently excluding their proprietary software. It should be trained on everyone's code, especially the proprietary stuff they're so protective of, or not trained at all.

Indeed. Which I consider to be a real loss.
