after everything I've seen and the litigation coming out of europe, I really can't see AI lasting long after they're obligated to prove rights for the data they're training on.

they can't get away with having scraped people's owned work forever. You can't steal things from workers and then undercut them by selling that hard work for pennies, and not expect everything to collapse. I mean, I know that the folks in charge of this aren't really known for their foresight, especially when stock numbers and venture capital are the entire point, but... surely I hope people can recognize that this can't go on unimpeded.

Eventually they're going to put vision LLMs in robotic bodies and they'll be able to learn just by listening and watching, just like humans, at which stage the idea that they're "stealing" just by viewing content will be seen as absurd.
