    I almost want to believe they legitimately do not know nor care they‘re committing a gigantic data and labour heist but the truth is they know exactly what they‘re doing and they rub it under our noses.

      Of course they know what they’re doing. Everybody knows this, how could they be the only ones that don’t?

      Yeah, the fact that AI progress just relies on “we will make so much money that no lawsuit will consequently alter our growth” is really infuriating. The fact that general audience apparently doesn’t care is even more infuriating.

        I’d say not really, Tolkien was a writer, not an artist.

        What you are doing is violating the trademark Middle-Earth Enterprises has on the Gandalf character.

          The point was that I absorbed that information to inform my “art”, since we’re equating training with stealing.

          I guess this would have been a better example lol. It’s clearly not Gandalf, but I wouldn’t have ever come up with it if I hadn’t seen that scene
