"Are they breaking any laws?"

"They're using our AI to figure out how it works! To make their own AI models better!"

"Yes, but are they breaking any laws?"

"No."

I get that Big AI is bitching but this isn't something we (as a country) should be actively trying to stop. To do so would infringe on everyone's rights to do things like scrape the Internet, download your own posts/history, archive stuff, etc.

It's not even fraud! They're paying customers! Do they use 3rd parties to pay? Sure. Is that illegal? No.

There's no way to stop it anyway. To believe otherwise is wishful thinking. It's like believing that passing some law or series of laws will somehow stop piracy.
