AI has always been able to train on copyrighted data because it’s considered transformative.
If this changes, seeing the huge amount of data needed for competitive generative AI, then open source AI cannot afford the data and dies. Strengthening copyrights would force everyone out of the game except Meta, Google and Microsoft.
That system that open source AI grew out of is exactly what is being attacked.

Cool then buy at least one copy of a book instead of pirating them.

I care more about people being properly rewarded in this capitalistic world than worry about the open source world.
