I have to say, I absolutely adore your dad. The fact that he tied everything back to fundamental kindness as the core of how we need to address AI usage is a simplicity that so many don't think to say.

for the AI and the Creative Professional podcast, I would love to hear a discussion about whether the training itself is a copyright violation, not the output. I think that the fact creators didn't consent to the use for training has to be some kind of violation.
