It’s all made from our data, anyway, so it should be ours to use as we want

That is how LLM works, they don’t store the data as data, but as weight values.

So then why, if it were all open sourced, including the weights, would the AI be worthless? Surely having an identical but open source version, that would strip profitability from the original paid product.

It wouldn’t be. It would still work. It just wouldn’t be exclusively available to the group that created it-any competitive advantage is lost.

But all of this ignores the real issue - you’re not really punishing the use of unauthorized data. Those who owned that data are still harmed by this.

It does discourages the use of unauthorised data. If stealing doesn’t give you competitive advantage, it’s not really worth the risk and cost of stealing it in the first place.
