Copyright class actions could financially ruin AI industry, trade groups say.

    Still, artists will see nothing.

      If artists see generative AI companies going bust, that will be something.

        No thanks. I care about real benefits and systemic changes. Not fucking petty vengeance.

        It’s literally worse than nothing because now all the time and effort used fighting for this was wasted.

          If it ends the stupid AI bubble then I don’t think it qualifies as petty vengeance; that is some real change. There won’t be meaningful legislation to aid the day-to-day person against this garbage, no, but it’d still seriously reduce the degree to which this shit has invaded our lives.

          If artists get a break from competing against plagiarized AI slop, that’s not petty vengeance.
