    You’re telling me nobody owns his shows, the material used to train the LLM, whatever trademark is used to allow redistributing his works etc just because he’s dead?

      Not at all. I’m saying that this use doesn’t seem to violate any laws.

        I think that’s up to the courts to decide and perhaps in this case, the company decided a verdict against them would be more damaging than a settlement.

          As I said, they don’t have resources (funds, time, patience, motivation, etc.) to fight it.

            You did. I misread at the time or not at all.

            I guess it might have been a waste of time they’d rather have skipped. Same as this chain of replies might be for you.
            Huh.

              LOL! Not at all. It’s always nice to realize at the end of the day that we agree. We just express it differently. :)
