    Would you be okay with applying that argument for any crime?

      I would be, and I don’t understand why you think this would be a problem. I wouldn’t want the government to be preventing activities that there weren’t any actual laws prohibiting.

      Ever heard of the early 21st century classic Minority Report

        You’re missing the point. I’ll make your example more specific.

        Well when fraud/rape/murder happens we have laws. So no problems.

        Those things happen. Creating a LLM based on copyrighted material without permission happens - it’s not a hypothetical. But even then, giving a punishment after the fact does not make the initial crime “no problem”, as you put it.
