Yes. You’re giving the companies WAY too much credit for owning the blender they throw stolen content into, and you’re even trying to give them ownership of what clearly doesn’t belong to them. I’m sure they’re just as eager to claim they did all the work and license the materials they use as you are.

I try not to call people idiots in debates, so there’s really only one reason you’d be giving them so much support.

The AI company stole other people’s code, threw it into a blender, and is selling the output. They didn’t do any real work, and they don’t own the materials. They have no legal claim over the result. You do not own a car you made from stolen parts, no matter how many cars you stole from.

Stop trying to imply your buddies at AI companies have value.

The AI company didn’t do shit. They stole apples from someone elses tree and threw it in a blender. They didn’t make the apples, nor did they buy them, so they don’t legally own the juice.
