I just don’t get your angle. My point was that the human is the one who has some freedoms and the one who bears responsibility. If you read a bunch of books in a book store without buying them and use your imperfect memory of them to do your job better and get paid more, it is shady but if you are not shooed away by store owner you have the freedom to do it. No one can extract the books you already read from your brain, and you did not sign an NDA. But if you set up an industrial scale book scanner in the same store, the boss will call the police on you and you cannot point fingers and say the scanner “reads” books and incorporates them into its worldview just like you would do. Because scanner is not human and you are, so you’re the one responsible for operating the scanner.
I see no difference with cryptotokens here, the human has freedoms to do things and the human is responsible for them if those things are bad. (Just unlike LLMs, theft of property and all that is kinda always a crime, unlike reading a book in a shop without buying.)
