I said a glimpse. I didn't say it's here now or it would be easy.

It is however, achievable. Certainly more so than engaging in the fantasy that we can criminalize LLMs out of existence. And it is likely more desirable than such an effort anyway.

It is achievable in theory yes. But it was also achievable without LLMs and yet, here we are.

Like trickle down economics?

We all experience the substance which is trickling down.

Or, perhaps, the companies forming the for profit LLMs could be made to pay a license fee for the copyrighted data they lifted from behind the paywall and then used to form a for profit entity with.

Nothing about banning technology. How about enforcing DMCA and then applying a penalty for the knowing theft rather than negotiating a license?
