Being a useful tool doesn't make it legal.
Let's pretend for a moment that your value judgement is reasonable and the advancement of technology should reign supreme over minor things like rule of law. Do you really think that letting people ignore copyright is always good for technical progress? Say, letting people use GPL code in proprietary code that they then refuse to share with others? Because that sounds questionable even if we agree with your casual disregard for the law.

Being interested in tech without being a fan of breaking the law and running roughshod over other people's work.
Only in very, very, very, very specific circumstances would I say it is not good. And they involve thinking about the counterfactual: "would this thing be created if there wasn't intellectual rights in place"? Code doesn't pass this test because people enjoy writing and sharing code. Pharmaceuticals, maybe.
I don't want anybody being able to generate "intelligent agents" and will support all legal changes likely to slow this down or halt it.
