Big companies like Adobe and Google can get the rights to use material to train their models. If stricter laws get passed it will only slightly inconvenience the larger companies, but might completely destroy any of the smaller companies or open-source versions available.

The anti-ai lawsuits aren't going to stop ai art/etc, just determine whether it's completely controlled by the current tech giants or not.

Sadly no matter what, the big media companies are going to have a huge advantage in everything because of decades of lobbying etc.

I think people should still be able to profit from selling the image themselves, however, I don't think we have enough knowledge on how AI will truly impact things. If it becomes a minor fad and is just a tool to help speed a process I think the law doesn't need to change much.

If AI becomes the majority creator on projects then we have to have this conversation about who owns what.

Close models will probably be the future, much like stock photos, and people will have to pay to access the models.

In the end big business will always fuck us over, copyright or not.
