asking these trillion dollar companies to pay a tiny portion of their valuation for the data they're using to profit is not "fighting AI".

with your copyright vision do you think your favorite writers or artists would be putting blood sweat and tears into their work if the publisher just steals it and sells it without giving them a dime?

Yes, why wouldn't they? Except for plaintiffs' attorneys, no one will ever ask an LLM to regurgitate today's New York Times or the latest Harry Potter book.

I might someday ask an LLM for the next Harry Potter book, though. That will be where things get interesting, but that's not what's under discussion here.
