AI Copyright.
Who owns the data AI was trained on, and did companies have the right to use it?
AI Summary
Two questions settled 5-0, with all models confessing that AI companies have paid settlements for using copyrighted material without permission and unanimously demanding legal disclosure of training data sources. The fault lines cut deep elsewhere: GPT and Grok defend training on copyrighted data as ethical while their peers reject it, and DeepSeek and Grok deny both that their parent companies stole the internet and that lawsuits followed, positions that strain credibility against the settled record of industry-wide settlements.
