The current system for distributing remuneration to rights holders is insufficient for the vast amount of data used to train AI models, which includes not only professional content but also public domain works and user-generated content. A more appropriate response to AI data extraction is collective redistribution to support public information infrastructure, rather than individual compensation, due to the difficulty in tracing specific creators. Additionally, there is a call for American AI labs to release more frontier-grade open-weight models under permissive licenses to foster startup innovation, with examples like NVIDIA's Nemotron and Thinking Machines' Inkling being cited as positive steps, though many leading models remain proprietary.
