>My point is that there’s no scientific way to demonstrate that one has made a choice

"I'm sorry, your honor, there is no scientific way to demonstrate that I have made a choice to shoot the victim dead. Therefore, I am not guilty!"

The way that an AI gets a data set to be trained on is via a choice made by humans. You can't reason your way out of the fact that a choice is made, that it's not made by the AI, and that it has consequences.

I mean the interesting bit of this conversation is about intelligence not laws. If you want to debate that talk to someone else I guess.
The conversation is about artists being ripped off by people who train AI models on their work without consent (and profit off of that).

But sure, let's pretend the conversation is about intelligence of an algorithm that has no agency and no say in the matter.

Being obtuse on purpose is fun!
