Oh my. The “you are all noobs, I am the only techie here, so I know it” argument is so unnecessary and makes you appear super entitled.

You obviously seem not to have an idea how all that shit works, where OpenAI and Microsoft scrape copyrighted material, which is illegal, to train their models. On top of that, in the US there are many laws where they can circumvent ToS if it helps national security, and we all know with Trump, that he will do everything to support his economy. So we end up with a situation, where the contracts say they will not use the data to train models, while doing this exact thing, and nobody ever will be able to prove it and the whole legal system in the US will protect the corporation. So good luck with that “lawsuit”.

But that is only when Microsoft would play by rules, which they don’t. Which no one does. So they just use the data to train the models, generating billions of value, and just wait for a lawsuit where they pay a fine of 100k.

This all comes to the conclusion that you are not just naive and inexperienced, but also an entitled asshole.
