This has got nothing to do with protecting any users, or public. It's not about us being safe and protected from AI.

This is purely so AI doesn't eat its own tail. What benefit are AI generated images to an AI?

They need to be able to be filtered out of their inputs.

They don't want to be eating their own s**

I don't see another good reason why the EU would force them to do this

Apparently quite a bit as long as you're not indiscriminately feeding random slop back in. An AI-generated artifact deemed "high quality" or somehow desirable by humans is a good training input depending on what you're trying to do. Humans don't train exclusively on external inputs either.
