I'd urge people watch and read Alex Avila’s essay on how the bourgeoisie are controlling the internet through anti AI campaigning.
It's pretty damning, and it's all about control. Larceny is wrong indeed, but AI corporations are NOT being charged with intellectual property “theft,” which is the crux of this counter capitalist campaign.
If the rich wanted AI regulated, they would have made the politicians they own pass those policies.
Which they have… see the video, it's full of citations and collusion.
I sat through the whole 3 hour video and at no point does he say anything like you described.
It only talks about how AI is bad, ranging from the loss of labor in a system where we must perform labor for survival, to how ofloading our creativity onto a machine kills the very spirit of humanity.
What a waste of time.
I'm blocking you now.
If you did, you would have found H.R.2794 & SB 1047
But I'm sure you went in to watch the video without any bias at all, and read through the citations.
