For someone who claimed to not be a fan of OpenAI, you sure do know all the fan arguments against regulation for AI.
I'm not here to argue the finer points, and in general I simply try to aim for the practical actions that lead to better circumstances. I agree with many of your points.
This lawsuit won't fix anything but it will slow down the progress of OpenAI and their ability to loot culture and content for all it's value. I see it as a foot in the door for less economically capable artists and such.
Lawsuits are not isolated incidents. The outcome of this will have far reaching impacts on the future of how people's work is treated in regards to AI and training data.
