By that case all art should be copyrighted since our brain stores a highly compressed version of everything we've seen.

I wager 100 TB => 4GB is different from JPEG compression and more similar to what happens in our brains. "Neural compression" so to speak

Good thing this is already the case! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berne_Convention

> The Berne Convention formally mandated several aspects of modern copyright law; it introduced the concept that a copyright exists the moment a work is "fixed", rather than requiring registration. It also enforces a requirement that countries recognize copyrights held by the citizens of all other parties to the convention.

This doesn't make any sense in this context and I think you know it bud.

I was making the point that stable diffusion != JPEG compression

The fact that it is a different form of compression doesn't change that it's compression. What is the argument here, that a numerical method should have the same rights as a person?
