    Whataboutism and JAQing off. AI models are trained off blatant mass theft; as long as the originators of the training material (1) haven’t given consent to their being scraped and (2) aren’t getting paid for said already-done scraping, then the generator is unethical and deserving of hatred. You can’t have it both ways-- if capitalism is the game that must be played, then the originators of the training data need to give their consent and they need to be paid for every byte of training data that’s been stolen from them.
