AI lawsuits
Okay, so if I get what recently came out of lawsuits:
-destroying millions of books to make unauthorised digital copies yourself is fair use if you don't make said copies publicly available
-using others unauthorised digital copies isn't fair use because I guess they were made publicly available
So all in all, they don't give a shit about consent (which, unfortunately, is hardly surprising given the regard they have for consent on other matters).
All they care is whether the copy is going public or not. Which is not a matter of consent, but of money, because what they care first and foremost is defending not having people getting for free what they want them to pay for.
Oh, and one more thing: court says it's okay as long as it's their not-public copies. But what if at some point the AI, which is publicly available, is able to give you the exact replica of the text in an answer?
