It's definitely going to be interesting, especially as it boils down to "What is the point in making a distinction of a human learning by seeing/hearing something, versus the distinction of a computer learning by seeing/hearing something"?

Note that there is no legal precedent for getting penalized for merely learning something by seeing/hearing it.  There is only penalty for exactly reproducing the thing seen/heard (e.g., by learning a song by ear, then performing it; or by typing out exactly the recollection of a book, and selling copies of it).

I'm eating my popcorn, waiting for the mess that the courts are going to make of this and the havoc it's going to wreak on the already problematic education system.

Note that you can't put the genie back in the bottle. No matter what future laws and court decisions will come, people will finetune models on copyrighted stuff, and people will train LORAs on copyrighted stuff. Stopping them will be harder than eliminating torrent piracy.

So little Timmy gets five dollars per art piece and then 500 companies proceed to use his data for ten thousand years.

Isn't that basically what happened to Henrietta Lacks? Except without even the five bucks, ha.

Iirc there was a bit more payout to her estate/living family some years back, but gods know I don't recall the details and can't be arsed to check them.
