It is impossible for my turnip soup business to make money if you enforce laws that make it illegal for me to steal turnips.

Paying for turnips is not realistic.

You bureaucrats don't understand food.

@davey_cakes so the whole problem with this entire discussion is that it's lose-lose for consumers. Yes, open AI is awful and what they are doing is awful. But at the same time, finally against it without adopting a copyright maximalist argument is difficult.

Your turnips are out at your stand at the farmers market. What I want to do isn't to take your turnips but to take a picture of them and use them.

@Amoshias I know what you mean about copyright maximalism.

I would alter your analogy to taking a photo of photos though - which isn't that bad once you don't sell them.
