I think I agree with this take. The book is in there in some sense, whether or not it is a copyright violation is debatable.
Honestly, I get why these debates happen—it is practical to establish whether or not this emerging tech is illegal under current law. But it’s also like… well, obviously current law wasn’t written with this sort of application in mind.
Whether or not we think LLMs are basically good or bad, they are clearly quite impactful. It would be a nice time to have a functional legislature to address this directly.
