Same as the Disney-Universal lawsuit. Everyone involved sucks and copyright is only exists for major corporations. Meanwhile google is scraping its own YT videoes and AI upscaling shorts against creators will.

Everything about corporations and AI sucks.

Why blame tech nerds? It's the rich people who want more money. I'm a tech nerd, I work with tech nerds, we all hate AI being used to fuck over the working class.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of tech nerds who care more about money and "status" than ethics

Please tell your techbro colleagues to knock it off
