it's absolutely similar to file sharing, a bunch of free riders who rationalize that an extra copy of spider-man never hurt anybody

  By that logic when you regurgitate a summary of your understanding of anything, you are potentially violating the copyright of your sources. Or when a writer plys their trade, the same. Now what if they charge for the article? Much of what Ai is ingesting is on the web for the purpose of ingestion.

    >Much of what Ai is ingesting is on the web for the purpose of ingestion. ingestion/consumption by humans, not automated ingestion for the purpose of reselling. the economics would not work longterm.

      Humans ingest said inforrmation, and then write further articles based on it to resell. The economics may not work, but my point is that media companies are going to have a lot of difficulty in parsing exactly who and what is able to utilize published information; and how they / it are permitted to utilize it. In the end, their economics won't be factored.
