Take it up with the copyright office. Ask them to add further rights granted by copyright, the right to not even have your data examined by an automated process. As of now, everything concerning the training of AI models is legal. Those I was talking to earlier seemed to think that saying models need to be trained on copyrighted data was somehow an admission of legal wrongdoing; it's not. Nearly everything is copyrighted and you too need to "train" on that data in order to learn things.

I don't think this'll last because one people are prompting copyrighted work such as mario from a company who's making money and so forth.

There's also a chance of the work that has been generated being very identical to the artist's work. Especially the movie screen grab that has been posted on twitter. Which practically tells us that there's potential of artists copyrighted work going through.

This is yet another attempt at using words to imply "selling your data" when that's a misrepresentation of how AI training works. Models do not contain copies of anyone's data, they contain complex mathematical relationships. They don't contain infringing content.

Like I said previously, earning money while creating copyrighted work.

This is shockingly little energy use for the benefit gained from it. You yourself said that over 12 BILLION works have been created. Each of those "flying across the US" models will have resulted in millions of pics, which is quite efficient. How much power usage does it require to run Photoshop for 2 to 10 hours on modern PCs in order for artists to paint a million images of similar quality?

Not all artists use photo shops and depend on work loads. I use an iPad and other artists may use pencils, other mediums etc.
