“fair use because I don't have 1000 lawyers”

That the legal system operates differently for those with greater wealth is a more general, certainly important problem, but not specific to LLMs or copyright.

One hopeful thought to consider, if big corporations like Disney use generative ai that have been trained on Joe Nobody’s artwork, and they will most likely, now Joe Nobody can sue Disney, and he may be able to find attorney’s because Disney has enough money to make themselves a lucrative target for lawsuits. Maybe this isn’t how the legal system works, I have very little knowledge of copyright law.
