People keep saying this, but I've yet to see a company follow through.

I am from EU and we have been getting a lot of things much later and having to use VPNs to get past this. Sometimes even a VPN is not enough since we need US phone number etc. Couldn't get access to Claude and OpenAI advanced voice mode for a long time. It feels very frustrating since others can already start building with cutting edge things, giving them a huge advantage.

It looks like opportunity.

Yes, unfortunately in this world not being "ethically constrained" can give you a big advantage. Still doesn't mean one should not strive to do the right thing.

If your ethics is innately tied to the nuance of fringe intellectual property law in a brand new domain, it may be time to relax some things That is to say, a lax perspective of intellectual property law can be less or more ethical than one which supports the undeterred corporate collation of powers behind those laws. Those in control do not have a monopoly on ethical goodness.

In this case the potentially infringed parties would be YouTube creators, who in most cases are not corporations or backed by them.

(I myself personally happen to think it's fine to train a commercial AI on content from the internet like this, but the framing of your argument just feels misleading or even manipulative. "Copyright" -> "IP law" -> "big business" -> "bad vibes", when for cases like this the affected people are almost all small individuals and the responsible entities are almost all big corporations.)

I have the local models, why am I supposed to care how a young company is wasting money?

Every local model worth a damn is also the product of a company wasting money, so if you want better local models in the future then it's still your problem.

Lots of 'what ifs'

but I still have these models on my computer.
