What AI is doing is not analogous to compression so even if you think they are they same, it legally and technically speaking is not subject to the copyright of the original.

Are you missing the comment that I'd responded to?

> Information entropy. The amount of data an LLM ingests cannot be compressed to the size of the weights even at maximum theoretical compression.

I wrote that comment. As I said, an LLM's weights are less than the size of theoretical compression, therefore what LLM training is doing is not compression at all.
I can't believe I have to say this again? Information theory is completely irrelevant to copyright.
At this point I believe you are willfully misunderstanding the argument, based on your other comments saying you don't understand, repeatedly, so I can't believe you have to say it again either.
