Given (A) :

> He also notes that the proprietary AI labs didn’t ask permission when they vacuumed up as much human knowledge as they could to train their models. They famously ingested plenty of copyrighted material without the permission of those intellectual property holders.

And many people's shared opinion (B):

>> I don't expect Tan's position to be based on any kind of real moral high ground, but his conclusion is correct.

It is very difficult to actually say NO to the fact that (A) was done, which then leads logically to conclusions as (B). But also we should remember that if these two hold (and (A) is an axiom more or less now), then it comes as no surprise that then also all opensource licensing is immediately rendered void and null, as keeping it would contradict (A) and would go against the very common and consequential logic in (B).

Copyright is so dead. And it was not me killing it with a cynical post on HN. Dunno why so many people still fail to face it. There is no way it can exist in its current form, because then immediately (A) happens and (B) follows.
