I mean true enough, but that's not what's going on here. Copyright exists so artists can profit from their work, so if there's no artist it stands to reason copyright law shouldn't apply.

They will just use it to generate scripts, change it enough with a human and claim it's just a tool.

Don't think for one second this will slow down greed.

Those scripts are going to make the current scripts look like classic literature.
