Etsy Artist: NO, you cannot have the raw files of your wedding pictures, are you insane? THOSE ARE MINE AND ONLY MINE!. I want to be paid for anytime you vaguely look in the direction of anything I done, FOREVER!

But you are telling me the former is the greedy bad guy and the later is the light for the revolution or something.

I'll go all in:

Yes, art has always been derivative. One artist inspires the other, borrows from the other, reacts on the ither. That's the way it works. The copyright laws we have now are pushing all life out of art in the name of making money.

I'm inclined to say that TechBros are usually not the ones whose work they give away for free*, and they really care more about profits than anything.

* there are a multitude of ways to provide information but making sure it's useless, for AI models that usually comes in a way of providing the source code but not training data or architecture, so that you'll need to do most of the work again. A lot of them don't do even that.

Please note, this comment is off topic to the OP post and is only about your idealistic view of TechBros
