    Because the people producing code with GPL are completely unrelated to the AI issues.

    You’re asking why you can’t shoot your neighbor if Russians are shooting Ukrainians.

      No, I’m asking why they’re held to a standard the AI makers are not when they’re not even charging for the completely optional tool.

        That’s a strawman. AI makers should definitely respect FOSS licenses.

        You’re just looking for excuses for their shitty behavior.

          The entire premise of the AIs are based on stealing intellectual property, which you’ll find cover far more ground than FOSS, but sure, whatever you say, person who definitely knows what a straw man is.

            And you are actually okay with collateral damage just because one of the two party is shitty in a way you don’t like.

            You’re not sticking it to the man by stealing other people’s code. You’re just hurting the little guy who spent hours on it.

                Again you’re not sticking it to the man by stealing from the little guy. WTF do you think you’re justified stealing your friend’s DVDs because Netflix takes money from you? Do you really think you’re making a stand?

                You’re just looking for an excuse to be a shitty person.

                  If your friend wouldn’t let you copy his DVDs to help artists defend themselves from being outright replaced by a soulless bot with no creativity of its own, they aren’t your friend.

                    Noone is being prohibited from using the code, the code can be used if they comply with the license, which they didn’t.

                    Do they make money off the snakeoil from artists? No. But they still make money off the snakeoil, they made quite a bit of it with glaze in the form of research grants etc, likely the same with nightshade. And in the end they just peddle false hope.
