The argument of the training inputs are "just like reading a book" seems like a fair statement IMO albeit antiquated these days. However, generating text, audio, or images in the specific style of an individual creator seems like a slippery slope that ultimately deserves some kind of renumeration.
I'm glad I'm not a lawyer or politician trying to sort this out. If AI gets commercially crippled, I really don't want to live in a world of black market training data.
