Louvre Thieves Given Immunity After Confirming Jewels Stolen For Purpose Of Training AI Software

FRENCH POLICE have immediately ended all efforts to recover priceless Napoleon-era jewellery from the Louvre taken in a daring heist after it emerged the jewels were merely stolen for the purposes of training AI software.

“When we realised these jewels were only stolen to inflate the share price of a company whose entire value relies on the wholesale theft of other people’s art, we had no choice but grant these scamps immunity,” confirmed French prosecutor Alain Barbier.

While this has outraged many people, authorities have appealed to the French public to just ‘accept it’.

“Thievery of art is here to stay, we need to accept that and move with the times. Yes, this gang stole from the most famous museum in the world but it’s in the name of training their AI software so it can do good doodle of jewels and maximise shareholder value so we are powerless to stand in the way,” added Barbier, appealing for people to just get over it and move on.

The individuals who carried out the daring daylight raid follow in the footsteps of countless Silicon Valley tech CEOs specialising in AI, who have carried out daylight raids on all of the world’s copyrighted material.

“We believe in human creativity, in the beauty of art which is why we’re creating the sort of technology that will enable people to create, obviously how we do this is part of our IP and we can’t share that and risk it being copied by our competitors,” confirmed the gang of thieves, wearing gilets as they carried the jewels into a van and sped away.
