If I went to an acting class to be trained to act like robert de niro and they used multiple facets of his work over the years to train me, is it infringement? If I go to an art class to learn how to paint like Picasso, and they use his work as reference, is that infringement? In these examples I’m the AI and the class is essentially the trainer. I get that the company is setting up the AI to be a product, but in these examples, I too would be setting myself to be a product if I use my new skills to profit.
All of the litigation isn’t necessarily wrong, so far, but AI is happening much too quickly for it to matter. And what’s more human, the thing the companies creating new AI are going for, than learning from our arts, languages, culture, etc.?
