    And as the rest of the conversation points out, if it’s so important that for profit corporations can ignore copyright law, there is no justifying reason for the same laws to apply to any other content creators or consumers. Corporations are the reason copyright law is so draconic and stiffles innovation on established ideas, so to unironically say it makes their business model unsustainable is just rich.

      Well, then we should see their want to change copyright in this way as a good thing. People complain when YouTubers get copyright struck even if their content is fair use or transformative of something else, but then suddenly become all about copyright when AI is mentioned.

      The toothpaste is out of the tube. We can either develop it here and outpace our international and ideological competitors, or we can stifle ourselves and fall behind.

      The future comes whether you want it to or not.

        who are these international and ideological competitors ? What happens if they develop it further than for profit corporations ?

        To me it seems like for profit corporations themselves are our international and ideological adversaries.

        They don’t want to change the law, they just want an exemption for themselves. Rules for thee, not for me.

          I think the exemption would be necessary to keep up with other nations who aren’t and will never be beholden to such laws.
