Every human is using the hard work of other humans down through the entirety of history and mostly without credit or attribution.
None us exists in a vacuum and we are all copying each other constantly.
Should students need to attribute the copyrighted textbooks and lessons that they learned from for all their future work?
Should artists attribute every reference they've used? Even if they draw stick figures based on the reference? Even if they only use small parts from multiple references?
What's different from a machine learning something and a human learning it?
I think in terms of practical open source/permissive licenses it makes the most sense for new licenses to be made that include no-training clauses for the rights holders that dislike machine learning.
Dall-E's use of training on non-permissive copyrighted web-scraped data seems more complicated and I imagine there will eventually be lawsuits to figure that out.
