Technically such cases could make a disaster in the nations with them - this type of case is entirely capable of effectively ending generative AI models in the nations with such legal precedents, but they'd just continue in other nations.

​

I occasionally wonder if jumping to attempts to prevent data use was deliberate in attempts to destroy generative models, or if it's just people lashing out. In either case, these are potentially very dangerous, but yes the models and companies would just head elsewhere likely.
