The reason those are allowed is because they don't compete with the source material. A thumbnail of a movie is never a substitute for a movie.

LLMs seek to be a for-profit replacement for a variety of paid sources. They say "hey, you can get the same thing as Service X for less money with us!"

That's a problem, regardless of how you go about it. It's probably fine if I watch a movie with my friends, who cares. But distributing it over the internet for free is a different issue.

What's an LLM supposed to be a substitute for? Are people using them to generate entire books or news articles, rather than buying a book or an issue of the new york times? Same goes for movies. No one is substituting marvel movies with sora video.

Yes.

Yeah because sora kind of sucks. It's great technology, but turns out text is just a little bit easier to generate than 3D videos.

Once sora gets good, you bet your ass they will.
