    I don’t see how that’s relevant. A company can pay someone to read copyrighted work, learn from it, and then perform a task for the benefit of the company related to the learning.

      But how did that person acquire the copyrighted work? Was the copyrighted material paid for?

      That’s the crux of the issue, Open AI isn’t paying for the copyrighted work they are “reading”, are they?
