i think we should start calling AI what it is: "Corporate Piracy".

para$$$ites have paid data hoarders to scrape whole websites, digital libraries and archives filled to the brim with copyrighted work; so they can repackage all that knowledge as if it were the serendipitous labor of sentient ghostly robots.

it's bullshit.

if unpaid sampling is copyright infringement; then scraping our social media and blogs, and passing it as their own knowledge, has to be as well.

bitch better have my money
