> This viewpoint is one widely shared inside the AI community — that AI systems should be able to learn from material just as humans do.

I'm not even against this to a point. The issue is what comes after. The monetization. The enshitification. The derivatives in place of real creativity.

Hardware and algorithms keep getting 10x better in this space with a regular cadence.

The only way to prevent the things you are worried about is to let anyone train a model, and then compete to make the best product.

The enshittifying monopolies and big copyright holders are the only ones that would benefit from locking down training data or regulating AI compute.

Even if we could all train evenly, those with money will always win out on the execution. You can't possibly believe just "letting things play out" as they have been so far, but with less copyright guardrails, is the solution here?
