Not extreme enough. Copyright itself should be abolished straight up. It's the information age, the AI age. Artificial limitations nonsense like copyright does nothing but hold us back. Even the corporations think so: they violate copyright at massive scales on a daily basis just to train their AI models. Why rules for us but not for them? That particular hipocrisy should have caused the elimination of copyright worldwide.
>Why rules for us but not for them?
Fair use exists for both people and corporations. Just because a corporation copies something in a way that is fre use, that doesn't mean that people should be able to freely copy it.
How could training of AI models possibly be considered fair use?
Because an AI model is not a market replacement for a book. ChatGPT doesn't compete against Little House on the Prairie.
The court said it was.
Equally cynically, it's fair use because if it isn't, the entire economy collapses overnight.

I wouldn't go that far. 18 months is long enough though.
