Under the EU's AI Act non-profits and universities can just bypass these constents to make non-commercial datasets btw

I don’t see the AI act giving those permissions. In fact, I don’t think the AI act applies at all here.

https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=OJ:...:

“This Regulation does not apply to AI systems or AI models, including their output, specifically developed and put into service for the sole purpose of scientific research and development.”

https://github.com/LAION-AI/BVD:

“LAION-BVD is released exclusively for research purposes and not for commercial use”

Does that apply to everyone who doesn't live in the EU as well? And what happens when a major AI company uses this dataset as training data, ignoring consent as usual?

But I've been told that the AI act was a terrible anti-innovation legislation made by clueless and corrupt bureaucrats. How is it possible that they made a sensible decision?
