On the first look, modern licenses like Creative commons, GPL and the MIT license are a here to stay, because they provide more freedom to the user. From the standpoint of spreading information into the world, these licenses have made a great job. Today's it's possible to download the latest Linux version for free and get access to lots of Creative commons pictures in the internet.
The limits of Open Source licenses are visible if someone tries to use the content in it's own product. According to the license itself, it's allowed in doing so. But in the reality nobody tries to do so, because it's a copyright violation. Let us make a simple example. Somebody downloads an photo from Wikipedia and puts the photo on the own homepage. The result is, that he is reused a copyright protected image. The first thing what will happen is, that WIkimedia will recognize the case. They have a special subpage in which all the Wikipedia content is tracked in the Internet. The second thing is, that the user gets perhaps an e-mail to not doing so in the future.
Somebody may assume that WIkipedia doesn't have understand the meaning of the Creative commons license, but it's a general problem. Suppose somebody ignores Wikipedia completely, and tries to re-use software which has a MIT License. That means, he downloads the sourcecode and then he puts the code onto his own homepage. The result is very similar to creative commons licenses. In theory it's maybe allowed in doing so, but in the real world it will create a lots of problems.
The real bottleneck is the not GPL, creative commons or MIT license, but it's the copyright for content. If somebody creates a text, and image or sourcecode from scratch he owns the copyright on this infomration. If a second person is using the content for it's own purpose, it's a copyright issue. The good news is, that it's pretty easy to overcome the problem. In short, a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) can do the job pretty well.
What does that mean? The first important fact is, that the GPL license, CC-BY and the MIT License are not as free as expected. They are protecting copyright protected information and as the result, it's not possible to modify the content free of any rules. The more elaborated way in handling content is to create it from scratch every time. If content1 is different from content2 no copyright law at all is needed to protect it. Let me give an example: somebody creates an Generative Adversarial Network algorithm which takes as input the images from the WIkipedia. After the learning process, the algorithm is able to generate lots of new images from scratch. They will look different from the original one. That means, these new images are not protected by the Creative commons license, but the user has created the content from scratch. Therefor he is allowed to use them in any possible way.
The conclusion is, that the limits of creative commons license can be overcome easily with modern technology which is a neural network for generating the content from scratch. This will make any copyright regulation (no matter if classical or modern Creative commons licenses) obsolete.
