We have a number of French members here (or who claim France as their country). Why not try seeking them out and asking them?
I am not sure if the Who's who list allows you to search for such people but you could try the C++ forums.

(From CP newsletter)
AI companies have all kinds of arguments against paying for copyrighted content - The Verge[^]
There is a real point in there about tracking down all of the owners and what they would actually be paid.
As an example consider the following real case...
You might know Lovecraft and you might even know of Cthulhu. But have you read the stories? I suspect not many people have. Perhaps because they were often (always?) a grind to get through.
There were other authors for that genre but can you name any of them?
Years ago I read a small publication that did gothic horror.
The editor of that publication (small magazine) made the point that he wanted to preserve all of those that he could find. Because some had not be published in any form for decades. And the original source material was being destroyed (books being trashed over time).
He could publish the stuff again. Thus preserving it.
But tracking down the copyright owners was an impossible task. It would just cost too much just to do only that. And then paying them anything at all just was not going to happen. (Having done some publishing myself I am rather certain this magazine was not making much at all.)
And there are very few other people even concerned about that.
--------------------------------
So now back to the link above.
Consider that googling suggests there are 28 million public repos on github. Who owns them? How do you contact each of them? Github is of course not the only code repository either.
Also consider how many of those repos you have used. And did you check the license? Did you pay them? Do you think everyone in your company did?
Now perhaps AI is just learning how to construct web pages. Googling says there are 200 million active/maintained websites. But a total of 1 billion. How does one track down the owner of a website that isn't even being maintained?
There are 2 million accessible books on the internet. Presumably most name the author. But is any other information provided? Used to be that any book actually in print in the US had the Library of Congress id but I have certainly seen a number of books where that is no longer true. One book I saw did not even have a 'title' page - although it probably did have a web contact of some sort in the back.
How are you going to train your next AI project when you cannot legally access any of that information? Any new rules on that will not just impact the big companies.

Zero. Done.

What they're objecting to, specifically, is paying to use copyrighted material when training AI. This is interesting because anyone can borrow a book from a library and "train" themselves without paying the copyright owner. The counterargument for AI would have to be bandwidth. A trained person can handle one client at a time, whereas an AI program is easily replicated to handle a large number.

With an actual book. The library bought it or if donated someone did. Only one person can read it at time.
Libraries are attempting to have electronic access. But publishers have been challenging that. Even if libraries limit the number of copies that are 'checked' out the publishers are challenging that also.

I just think Musk is an even bigger "goof" now for appropriating "grok" and "grokking".
So far, I have yet to meet anyone else that made the connection. Or cares. Sad.

Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land. "Grok" is a total misnomer for something that doesn't really understand anything.

I always check the license, and I tend to avoid things that aren't licensed unless I know from context that it's public domain - even then maybe that's not the best practice. 
But yeah, I want people to respect my licenses so I try to respect other people's.
As far as the rest of your comment, mostly it just gives me another reason to sideeye "AI"

So do I. But so far I have never worked with anyone else that does. I have worked with multiple people that are not even clear on what I am talking about what I bring it up. Additionally there are sub-dependent libraries which are often ignored as well.

Gosh that seems irresponsible. And they do this for commercial code? I'm assuming so. Yikes! 
Man, that really is begging for trouble, to my mind, but then I always assume the source code I produce will eventually find it's way into the world so I assume someone will see it. I mean, I don't need that to keep me honest, but it keeps me honest, if that makes sense.

Seriously, it's not FB and it's not here... save for one or two peeps. Or maybe they're smart enough to avoid the lounge, and I'm not. Willing to accept I'm not the intelligent one here. 
I always thought about looking into Mensa, but I'm not so sure that's worth it to be honest. Maybe I should reevaluate.
For real though, looking for intelligent peeps so I can have a higher quality of chat. Online bickering with ignorance isn't fulfilling anymore. There's no advancement in that. It's actually revolting and disgusting in my view.
Maybe I'm not being realistic or perhaps I'm too immature to simply ignore the clowns. Will accept that because I seem to attract them. Just want to know where the intelligent people are because so far, they're very, very rare it seems.
Btw, if you say you're intelligent you're not. And if this offends you, you're also not.

He could start his own cult? As a cult leader absolute agreement with the cult leader is always required.

At present, it seems as though most online cults are politically based boooorrrring.

Doesn't someone have to think they are intelligent to decide they can accurately assess the intelligence of others?
And what did he say about that? I forgot already.
Anyway, if anyone needs to know anything about Jeremy, they just need to read that post.

Gotta agree with that. Refusing to accept reality is the definition of insanity I suppose. Dang it.

Mensa is weird.
The few people I know that were mensa, were not pleasant, mostly large ego and obnoxious.
if you want to have a quality chat on various topics, find local groups with in-person meetings.
Also, being intelligent is different than being informed and be able to talk about stuff.
Again, I know a lot of people who are intelligent but only in their fields, they are not curious about anything else.
Good luck.
