Like I said, there’s nothing we can do about companies using all the data they can get their hands on for R&D. It IS possible to protect against the second case, where companies can’t sell an LLM product with copyrighted training data.
My question was about how that second case could be extended to stuff posted on the Fediverse, such as if an instance had a blanket “all rights belong to the user posting the content”.
These laws exist, if companies can use them then so can we

If an artist learns their technique from copying other artists until they are competent enough to produce their own original works, should they be banned from selling their original work or services? After all, they used copyrighted training data to gain the skills needed to produce said work and services.

LLMS and Generative AI do not learn like humans and regulating it the same would be disingenuous and completely off base.
