> this bullshit copyright anti-AI narrative has taken hold among so many people. Sorry but looking/listening to a bunch of stuff to learn what that stuff looks like and then using that learning to produce new, entirely original, works is not a f-ing copyright violation.

I think it mostly didn't actually take hold.

They just have a problem with automation itself. All of this talk about copyright is just the best they can do to argue that technological progress should be halted.
