Copyright and intellectual property are directly at odds with these types of efforts, and has been losing to linux, gnu, github, wikipedia, mit open courseware, youtube, LLMs and their datasets. But copyright did slay Napster, PirateBay, anna’s archive etc…
This all be quite dated in 10-20 years now. Common information will be free as it was in the 90s, but valuable information will then probably cost even more. And 99.9% times illegal to obtain or possess.
Until individual countries start realizing that protecting copyright is costing them lots of potential economic growth coming from IA, and the IA business start lobbying more than the copyright business, at which point the law would just change.
Intellectual property is a fairly recent invention in economic history, and it only happened because it benefited the elite. If the balance of power changes so will the law.
thats apparent. my point being that IA will put the final nail in the coffin as it's retelling information in a way which evades copyright in many cases.
