Because crippling copyright for corporations is like answering the "defund the police" movement by turning all civilian police forces into paramilitary ones.

What most complain about copyright is that is too powerful in protecting material forever. Here, all the talk, is that all of that should continue for you and me but not for OpenAI so they can make more money.

And no, most of us would not benefit from OpenAI's product here since their main goal (to profitability) is to show they can actually replace enough of us.
