    I mean, that’s great and you’re well within your rights, but that’s not what people generally say when they express outrage about AI scraping. People straight up call it theft very often and seem to consider using online content for training is the equivalent of copying or distributing it.

    Which stands out to me because that was not what happened when the EU decided that Google News was effectively piracy after a whole bunch of news outlets complained. The consensus there seemed to be that it was a bummer to lose the service despite all the scraping.
