That is awesome, anyone can train an AI model and use copyrighted materials. So this is the end of IP laws?
Copyright is conveniently only flexible for multibillion dollar AI firms.
Trump’s government siding with OpenAI is peak MAGA economics: copyright is sacred until Silicon Valley needs millions of other people’s books, articles and art for free. Then suddenly property rights become an annoying obstacle to »winning the AI race.« Apparently America First now means AI companies first, creators somewhere near last.
Property rights are sacred until they need land to build a data center, then is eminent domain on the name of “public good”

And now complain again that the Chinese are stealing from you.
I‘m usually one of the first to point out Chinese success is largely based on theft and their business model isn‘t compatible with western capitalism or democracy as a whole.
But yeah the USA lost me a long time ago here. Just insane hypocrisy that even makes Chinese wolf warrior ‚diplomacy‘ look modest.
