I mean, don't train models on watermarked images because it makes the model reproduce watermarks which degrades the quality of the model, but intellectual property as we see it has got to go, it's not healthy for humanity. The illegal thing should be closed sourcing a model, not building it off "copyrighted" images. We need UBI/social safety/cultural reform to support artists in doing art, a thing that's deeply important. We don't need IP laws that allow people to stifle creativity in order to collect rents on things that can be infinitely replicated for free.

We don't need IP laws that allow people to stifle creativity in order to collect rents on things that can be infinitely replicated for free Which do you put in place first? I think this is a bit of the issue with this argument. As automation does eat at jobs, you can say that the solution is UBI or something like it, but since that's not there, right now and until it happens (which could be never), it will affect people's livelihood, and it's fair for them to be pushing back. If such social foundation was already here, I don't think people would be complaining as much, they'd probably be joyful that they'd no longer need to work as hard.
