    This is frankly very simple.

    • If the AI is trained on copyrighted material and doesn’t pay for it, then the model should be freely available for everyone to use.

    • If the AI is trained on copyrighted material and pays a license for it, then the company can charge people for using the model.

    If information should be free and copyright is stifling, then OpenAI shouldn’t be able to charge for access. If information is valuable and should be paid for, then OpenAI should have paid for the training material.

    OpenAI is trying to have it both ways. They don’t want to pay for information, but they want to charge for information. They can’t have one without the either.
