IP is the promise that you get the dues for your work, guaranteed by the government. It is what enables the entire "information economy". Without it, we'd soon need to weed out people that don't contribute to IP.
We need more countries to be strong and brave and say no to westerners forcing them to be unable to copy technologies... like China has done to some extent... but that might take too long.
The path where AI lawyers can sort IP disputes instantly and hence competitors can easily find out how to copy technology without violating laws would be another nail in the coffin of this corrupt practice.

The people who we don't want generating training data will not generate it... and that is a good thing. You have been generating too much crap in the name of innovation anyway. Real tangible useful innovation gets copied naturally in the marketplace in absence of corruption.
