interesting, what kind of indirect market are you imagining here?
I was imagining a marketplace that is essentially an escrow service that allows AI companies to purchased the rights to train their models. Or, maybe, a Spotify model where they pay you residuals. It's an interesting idea because the type of content that would be valuable to AI models is not 'entertaining' content, but content it is able to use in useful ways. So, it would create a brand new market of content and I'm not sure what that content would look like.

The most important members of these new companies will be lawyers, and a few programmers building the "we didn't do anything wrong" audit trail tools.

got it.
it’s really fun to think about the kinds of content that will perform best in a world where AI drives the revenues for creators.
i’m also unsure of what kinds of content will do best, but i’ll take a stab at it regardless.
If OpenAI knows what people are searching, and knows where their dataset is incomplete or could use improvements, i wonder if they could pay people directly for training their models on particular subjects.
if they determine that their bitcoin models are not performing well, maybe they pay higher rates for people to create content that answers questions about Bitcoin than for those creators making sports or politics content.
google already pays different prices based on the kinds of content creators make, seems like a natural progression with the difference being that OpenAI might tell a creator what content to make before they actually do it.
