Are you also against copyright infringement when it's piracy? Because I'm not, so it would be inconsistent to judge open source generative AI models for doing something I don't consider wrong.

I consider piracy wrong when companies are stealing from creatives (like authors whose books are included with no credit or royalties) for the purposes of profit. I don't believe all piracy is always good full stop. I believe piracy is ethical if it allows for preservation of content that may otherwise not be preserved or maintained.

Also that was just one of my points lol. Most LLMs are still just bad at what they are claiming to be able to do.
