    Yes. They stole everything and are diverting markets to their newly acquired storehouses. Many many many markets. All AI companies are criminal operations. If you’ve built a body of work and had it scooped up by a billionaire to have it output simply by referencing your name… its easy to see this point. Of course the non-creator’s voice, who has no work absorbed by these corporations, will be the loudest to defend AI.

      Even if someone is being gracious enough to allow you the argument that copying is theft, which it is most assuredly not, it wouldn’t make anything a “criminal operation” because, by law, it isn’t a crime. It is a civil offense.
