You can't attack other users like this, no matter how right you are or feel you are, nor how justified or strongly you feel. Preserving a container for respectful interaction here is more important, and we need commenters to contribute to that, not destroy it.

I understand your frustration, but I don't agree with the sentiment that AI-training should not be allowed without compensation.

If I learn to draw, make music, build stuff, etc. I look at what others have done before me. I don't pay anyone either. Why should the AI?

First, starting off with “as a <insert self aggrandising title>…” already makes you ineligible to emit an opinion on any given subject.

Second, rude.

Third, you might want to check with a professional, but it seems to me you are projecting your own (fairly obvious, and loud) insecurities onto others; I’m sorry that you feel you’re not good enough at music.
