Is it the same generation? I grew up in the Napster, MIT license, software-patents-are-bad, "information just wants to be free, man" days, and have more or less the same views today, particularly when it comes to AI model training and such.
But time moves on, the internet skews younger, and Gen Z is all the rage now, and starting to set talking points. I think when all your music has always been streamed for free or like $8/mo, playing by the rules feels different.
But I am curious how many former "intellectual property isn't property" folks there are that are now on the side of "scraping web content to train a model is immoral".
