While I'm not unsympathetic to the plight of creatives, and their need to eat, I feel like the pendulum has swung so far to the interests of the copyright holders and away from the needs of the public that the bargain is no longer one I support. To the extent that AI is helping to expose the absurdity of this system, I'm all for it.

I don't think "burn it all down" is the answer, but I'd love to see the pendulum swing back our way.

Because copyright laws rarely serve small independent creatives, but rather corporations like Disney that are in the business of hoarding and monetizing culture.
