I wonder what stupendous and insane mental gymnastics #CopyrightMaximalist scum come up with to justify their actions to themselves that don't fall apart on their own.

How can you rationalize "I'm going to hold #culture, #knowledge and #information hostage for profit?" to perceive it as anything other than heinous?

@argumento Don't forget the #CopyrightMaximalism

Decades of #CopyrightMaximalism has convinced millions of people that anything you can imagine is #IntellectualProperty, and that this is indistinguishable from real property, which means that no one can use it without your permission.

This is something I'm really worried about. We need a response to AI generated art that doesn't depend on expanding surveillance or censorship (through stricter IP enforcement) or criminalize research etc (by expanding CFAA to include image scraping for example)

We've been down this exact road before, from the creation of the VCR to the explosion of the Internet. #CopyrightMaximalism does not help artists. Period. We need a better way. #copyright #AI #AIart #NoAIart #artificialintelligence
