It’s very complicated, and if a lawyer tells you it’s not you need to get a new lawyer. Whether something is fair use is determined based on a number of different factors that all are weighed. There’s not some simple if-then algorithm to tell you the answer. There is case law which sets up some known points in the space, but if you walk off that manifold, no one knows how things will be weighed. LLMs are off the manifold in a lot of ways. We’ve never had a form of information digestion/encoding quite like them. Politically, both content creators and AI companies see this decision as existential. Ruling one way or the other is actually almost unthinkable. The only solution is going to be some compromise that comes from Congress, because the sorts of things that would be in such a compromise can’t be imposed by the courts with existing legislation.
