> What about IP and copyright?

For training the models, and assuming that the content was itself acquired without other acts of infringement? That was ruled legal by the judge in the case I actually (skim) read the judgement of.

At least two companies engaged in acts of infringement to get training data. This is not lawful, and what Anthropic settled out of court for.

Of course, if the data/knowledge is open and accessible, why not?

open and accessible != free from copyright

		As per court ruling, training is fine when they have lawful access. i.e. open and accessible on the general web is fair game, torrents from the pirate bay is not. Feel free to argue that copyright law should be changed; this wouldn't be the first time it needed a significant update because new technology made it cheap to do at industrial scale something that was previously so hard that even being able to pull it off made you look legit.
