I love how copyright isn't a problem when it's the little people having it leveraged against them by megacorps.

But now that the little people are leveraging it against the megacorps -- oh, I guess copyright was a mistake now. It wasn't meant to protect the people, it was meant to protect the richest.

Disgraceful. I love the EFF but this is a huge miss. Copyright is the only thing protecting creatives from a corporate driven slop fest, and consumers would be hurt by this too with lower quality higher quantity trash.

EFF has always been opposed to the expansion of copyright, regardless of the "size" of the copyright holders involved.

The cats out of the bag. If the US enforces stricter copyright then China just wins. There's is no stopping the slop, there's no stopping what's coming.

Yeah, but we also lose to china by not having child labor. We want to lose battles that are against our morals -- that's what it means to have morals. Besides, it would also be illegal to use chinese ai models in the states that infringe copyright.
