Valve is doing an excellent job at keeping ai spam out of steam and should be commended for it. There should be zero tolerance for allowing stolen ip to be resold the way openai and many in the ai underworld dream of reselling.
I can see your viewpoint, but at the same time, if there's nothing of the original training material in the output, what exactly is being stolen and resold?
I guess I'm saying that I can see how you got to that position, but I'm not sure your conclusion makes sense. The production of the model involves widespread use of IP - much of it questionably obtained - but you cannot go back to the original IP from the output.
