If your corporation's business model relies on lawbreaking, your corporation has no legal legitimacy.

We don't let narcotic cartels and trafficking rings list themselves on the stock exchange: why should OpenAI or Facebook be any different?

@cstross it seems to me that there is a very simple choice. Kill AI by enforcing existing copyright laws, or take the long way around by letting AI trash copyright laws thereby killing all the creative industries AI needs to steal content from, thereby slowly starving the AI industries of the content they need to improve.

One choice at least leaves us with something valuable. The other will just take longer.

@pmb00cs @cstross perhaps real creativity will need to go underground. Or is that an extreme response? Cos I believe that we will start to leave the internet: we will have to for our privacy and our sanity.
