I bet companies are circumventing this in a way that allows them to derive almost all the benefit from your data, yet makes it very hard to build a case against them.
For example, in RL, you have a train set, and a test set, which the model never sees, but is used to validate it - why not put proprietary data in the test set?
I'm pretty sure 99% of ML engineers would say this would constitute training on your data, but this is an argument you could drag out in courts forever.
Or alternatively - it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
I've recently had an apocalyptic vision, that one day we'll wake up, an find that AI companies have produced an AI copy of every piece of software in existence - AI Windows, AI Office, AI Photoshop etc.
