      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.

          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.
