While it was pro-piracy, nobody did deliberately closed GPL or MIT code because there was an unwritten ethical agreement between everyone, and that agreement had benefits for everyone.
The batch has spoiled when companies started to abuse developers and their MIT code for exposure points and cookies.
One of the main points of the GPL was to prevent software from being siphoned up and made part of proprietary systems.
I personally disagree with the rulings thus far that AI training on copyrighted information is "fair use", not because it's not true for human training, but because I think that the laws were neither written nor wielded with anyone but humans in mind.
As a comment upstream a bit said, some people are now rethinking even releasing some material into the public, out of not wanting it to be trained by AI. Prior to a couple of years or so ago, nearly nobody was even remotely thinking about that; we could have decades of copyrighted material out there that, had the authors understood present-day AI, they wouldn't have even released it.
