I'll stay sceptical until there is court cases supporting this logic as a precedent.
I think that's actually quite sensible, our lawyer wasn't flagging some clear cut legal certainty, he was flagging risk.
Risk can be mitigated, even if the chance of it panning out is slim.
A bit besides the point, but it is pretty crazy to me that we're moving towards a world where if you create by yourself, you're outcompeted, but if you use AI like everyone else, you own nothing.
