I don't think your code being used for training is a concern anymore. They'll eventually keep finding new codes until it reaches its peak. Refusing to share your code for training will just postpone the inevitable, AI code will improve to its peak sooner or later.
You replied to only one of my points, and that's not even what I said...
They train new models on base models, and I'm talking about how they scraped the internet without permission or how websites sold their users data without compensation and how no one was ever given any opportunity to opt out of sharing your work and your words to train these base models on.
Without that grand scale theft we would have no base models anywhere near what we have now.
I'm not opposed to willingly sharing, I'm opposed to profiting from stealing.
Your mistake is to think that I want to prove something, I don't want to mention all your points, this is just a comment, not a scientific discussion.
