Hot take: LLM technology is being purposefully framed as AI to avoid accountability (self.technology)

Which of the following sounds more reasonable?

I shouldn't have to pay for the content that I use to tune my LLM model and algorithm.
We shouldn't have to pay for the content we use to train and teach an AI.

By calling it AI, the corporations are able to advocate for a position that's blatantly pro corporate and anti writer/artist, and trick people into supporting it under the guise of a technological development.

I don't see why a single human should be able to profit off learning from others but a group of humans doing it for a company cannot. This is just how humanity advances at whatever scale.

I had a comment about the morality of it at first but I pulled it out. This is not an easy question to answer. Corporations gate keeping knowledge seems weird and dystopian but the knowledge is out there and they are just making connections between it. It also touches on copyright and fair use.

I agree it's much more complicated an issue than most people give it credit.
