I suspect that your extreme position must come with a sincere belief that nothing even close to human intelligence will ever be achieved. Imagine a robot with an AI brain. It would have to be blindfolded because just by learning to recognize, or even just viewing, the label on a can of Coke it would have “copied” it and become “illegal,” especially if it was capable of sketching it on demand. Any kind of intelligence cannot even simply view or listen to the world without encountering something IP-encumbered.

Learning, by human or machine, means extracting a copy of the essence of something and yes, storing that essence in a lossy way. It seems like learning from copyright-encumbered material ought to either be illegal for both, or legal. I know which world I would rather live in.
