I think the question boils down to what is fair use in these situations. I actually think it would be useful to have a public effort to build a pan humanity model that claims fair use for public benefit and consumes all productions of humanity. What specifically hurts OpenAI is the monetization and commercial benefit from other people’s work. They also fall clearly in the space of civil claims of copyright violation, if not criminal (however the use of models to produce copyright materials is likely criminal infringement). (IANAL, but a law professor friend made these claims to me, YMMV)
