A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I wouldn't have a problem with all this scraping, if these companies had to release their models trained on this data as open source.

That's a great idea. Can we not apply a license to that social content that forces AI models trained on it to be open source?

That's actually pretty good. And then they're open to getting sued when caught.

I guess it could be done on an instance basis, although I'm not sure how happy fediverse users will be if their instance has an official policy of open-sourcing (or maybe it's public-domaining?) all their content by default.

Well, such a license could just obligat to open source the AI model that has been trained on it. If the instance prohibits training of AI models, or allow it, would be a separate condition that's up to the instance owner, and its users can decide if they want to contribute under that condition, or not.
