    Training good models requires lots of training data and computational resources, so the only ones who can afford to train them are big corporations with access to both. And the only objective they have is to increase their profit.

      Well, as long as we ensure training data needs to be paid for and can’t just be scraped from the web, we will ensure that only large corporations with deep pockets can train models.

      That is the reason there is a big “grassroots” push to stop AI from training on all our web content: it’s a play to ensure no small players can make AI, and that AI is dominated by a few big players.
