Respect your opinion and where you’re coming from, but disagree simply for the fact that this will create a silo of corporatized AI because they will be the only ones who will have the ability to pay for the IP at the necessary scale (that’s not to say that this is not already happening to an extent with the existing model). I do think the conversation is worth having though about the public value of data that’s readily available on the internet and how it squares with our (imo) outdated IP laws. How do we ensure that individual creators retain full control and benefit of their art/content/knowledge, while not stifling or unduly hampering AI research? How much protection do we afford data that users willingly put on the internet that’s publicly available? And who pays for the data in the chain?

All of those questions are already asked and answered for regular copyright. Sorted out for music, movies, books, etc.
And what a wonderful system we have as a result.
