A key plaintiff argument from the copyright litigation against OpenAI: the company's copying of copyright-protected literary works for training must be judged by its ultimate purpose — generating output that serves the same purpose as, and acts as a substitute for, the ingested works.
TuhinChakr shared the quote sarcastically, poking at those who frame this as "democratizing creativity," reflecting the ongoing divide over fair use in AI training.
