Seriously. The intent behind copyright, which no one disputes, is that you should not be able to make a copy of someone else's work that dilutes the value of their work to the point where anybody chooses to use the diluted version instead of the original.
Where in AI can it be even REMOTELY shown that someone is using an AI product where they otherwise before AI would have been inclined to purchase the original novel instead?
Copyright abuse has been a problem for years but because the big players are the ones doing the abuse no one wants to fix it.
Same for patent trolls.
