“collective creativity of humanity” = other people's copyrighted works, being recycled into OpenAI's slop machine.

@OpenAI's Sora is #1 on the App Store despite being invitation-only. Think TikTok for AI video. The timing is no accident. ChatGPT hit 85M mobile MAUs in the US (the total number, including desktop and global, is much larger). But they can't monetize free users: no ads, no [image…
