They're obviously scared they're not gonna get payed for nothing anymore. And they are scared they will be 100% replaceable. I don't think the last part is reasonable.

Imo they should pay authors who contribute in the datasets. But besides that there shouldn't be any copyright on writing/drawing styles whatsoever.

    Agreed, the output of the model isn't really the issue (other than providing evidence that those works are in the dataset), the inputs are. I would also like to see groups like wikipedia get something back from this too, OpenAI abused a ton of community funded resources and expects to sell that shit back to us as GPT subs.

    I see your point. If you're interested in the topic, Jaron Lanier published a book about micro-payments for datasets in 2013. It's an interesting read.

    If you're too lazy you can also ask ChatGPT for a summary of the main points tho ;)
