Mistral CEO: AI companies should pay a content levy in Europe

The world over more like. None of those models would even exist if they had made a good faith attempt at licensing data, and I'm still not convinced what we now have to deal with was worth the ongoing massive ethical compromise. I'm more than tolerant of one off uses for self-enrichment. Not for commercially reselling in competition to the entirety of those you've lifted from. Raising humanity fine, replacing them by putting a toll booth out front not fine.

Sadly, behind a big paywall.
