My concern is that billions of works are being used for training with no consent and no regard to the license, and that the model “learns” is not an excuse. If someone saved some of my content for personal use, sure, I don’t mind that at all, but huge scale scraping for-profit operation downloading all content they physically can? Fuck off.

Most models are trained unethically, relying on weird statements about how humans learn the “same way” (looking at a few references when drawing a specific thing, you need to know how it looks to draw it lol) as large models (more or less averaging and weighting billions of images stolen from internet with no regards to the licenses)
