I don’t really understand the long term plan, or maybe I don’t believe lawmakers understand where we are going long-term with this stuff.

We’re still in the very early days.

Unless the academic community really drops the ball, in 5 or so years they’ll be training models around the quality of the current state of the art on professors’ research clusters (probably not just at R1 universities).

I’d be shocked if, in the long term, anyone who can get access a library’s worth of text won’t be able to put together a useable model.

There’s nothing magical about our brains, so I imagine at some point you’ll be able to teach a computer to read and write with about as many books as it takes to teach a human. I mean maybe they’ll be, like, 10x as dumb as us. A typical American might read hundreds of books over the course of their life, what are they going to do, require a license to own more than a couple thousand e-books?
