Hey, I despise bait and switch from large corps. But I also find it unsustainable this idea that societies and legal resources are wasted fighting for IPs.
The code is out there. Millions of people are being trained and writing code based of the learnings of open data.
Designers have "mood boards". Developers have open source. Right now I don't have sympathy for MS, but in a few years any you developer could just do what MS is doing with Copilot in their bedroom. Why would you care about the kid in their bed room training an AI with free (as in public) information?
This is copyright. I put it out there with a government guaranty that I get to retain ownership out of it. Society at large benefits because more people put their stuff out their. You want to break that deal and you will end up with less sharing. Why are you for information silos? I am for open ideas and sharing. You are for stealing and breaking the moral agreement because distributing my code in the form of an AI analysis doesn't groke with you as the same thing as distributing it in another manner.
You will then increasing get LESS sharing and MORE silos. There is a reason copyright laws exist, it's because they are a NET PLUS to society. It's not just 'for the benefit of EVIL corp'.
