I changed my mind about it somewhat after I noticed that newer models give proper attribution of their sources, which is a bigger deal than most people think - in the aftermath of these legal battles, there was usually no upside for creatives because from their point of view, nothing had really changed. But the combination of new regulations and market needs (attribution is non-negotiable for professional development, the need was always there) has created a new opportunity for technology to create a copyright system that can operate at scale, even while remaining fully digital.
