No regulations is going to force them to retroactively take their current models offline.

Public facing doesn't mean open source.

Never said it was but public facing means you can scrape and use it for ml projects. This has already been decided in courts of law. You can't use data with personal information or data which needs an account to access. Peruse kaggle for a bit, it's all scraped datasets.

do you have any idea who I am

I literally don't, I'm assuming you are part of the 99.999 % of population that didn't get upset just like I assume you have arms and legs.

Did you get upset about translators online when it happened?

I'm also assuming you use AI on a weekly basis like practically everyone else else.

You can give me a detailed biography and a list of every device, software and app you use, and I'll stop assuming. Its fine if I'm wrong, point it out but it feels like I'm assuming correctly and instead of admitting it, you would rather get offended.

the open source bit

Paying 20x more than it currently costs to train a model will affect how many models are trained and given away for free.

public domain works, it most definitely is enough

Not enough to give a usable and competitive product. What's the point of gimping open source so openai cam get all that profit. The jobs will still be lost regardless of if we can run these models on our computer or if a subscription service is the only option.

Artists and writers already struggle more than your usual workers.

I can empathize, I know it sucks. But regulations won't change any of that. Deviant art will sell its dataset, the artists won't be compensated and they will still have a hard time because these tools will still be available.

And please don't call me "mad"

You commented under my post with a trite catch phrases. The tone of your comments aren't very nice. I don't know you, I'm going off of how you are saying it and it's coming off as angry.
