You don't think the law could basically make them infeasible? Right now they rely on leeching off content generated by real humans. Cut that off and they're going to have issues even training them.

Get something by Disney included in the training data by mistake and just watch what happens.

I don’t think god can stop it now, not disney, not the lawyers, not even the communists.

Your best hope is LLM’s in the current state aren’t enough, and we need to wait for another algorithmic leap or a lot more computational power improvements before we get to human level.

Litigation stops a whole lot of things in its tracks. Copyright stuff barely scratches the surface of the legal issues these things raise.

Other things that are soon to come - trade secrets no longer being trade secrets because company staff are feeding internal documents and source code into a cloud model (a practice that doesn't really align with "reasonable efforts to keep something secret"). Or even just the basic question of, who gets the blame when something generated by an LLM causes a significant problem? It doesn't take much in the way of judgments or settlements before an org realizes the risk of un- or under- reviewed output simply isn't worth it.
