I wonder how the AI/copyright arguments will play out in court.

"If I read your book and I have a photographic memory and can recall any paragraph do I need to pay you a licensing fee?"

"If I go through your library and count all the times that 'the' is adjacent to 'end' do I need to get your permission to then tell that number to other people?"

Cases where we see the absurdity of copyright in its current form. But either we have it for everyone, including OpenAI, or for no one. Or are perhaps some more equal than others before the law?
