Good.

Fuck Sam Altman's greed. Pay the fucking artists you're robbing.

Training that AI is absolutely fair use.

Selling that AI service that was trained on copyrighted material is absolutely not fair use.

What if we had taken the billions of dollars invested in AI and invested that into public education instead?

Imagine the return on investment of the information being used to train actual humans who can reason and don’t lie 60% of the time instead of using it to train a computer that is useless more than it is useful.

So pirating full works suddenly is fair use, or what?

[–] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 11 points 13 hours ago

Only if you're doing it to learn, I guess

Wait until all those expensive scientific journals hear about this

If I'm using "AI" to generate subtitles for the "community" is ok if i have a large "datastore" of "licensable media" stored locally to work off of right?

God forbid you offer to PAY for access to works that people create like everyone else has to. University students have to pay out the nose for their books that they "train" on, why can't billion dollar AI companies?

If everyone can 'train' themselves on copyrighted works, then I say "fair game.''

Otherwise, get fucked.

Come on guys, his company is only worth $157 billion.

Of course he can't pay for content he needs for his automated bullshit machine. He's not made of money!

If your business model only works if you break the Law, that mean's you're just another Organised Crime group.

Gentlemen, this is democracy manifest!

What is the charge, officer? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?

If artificial intelligence can be trained on stolen information, then so should be "natural" intelligence.

Oh, wait. One is owned by oligarchs raking in billions, the other just serves the plebs.

I mean, if they are allowed to go forward then we should be allowed to freely pirate as well.

Come on bro, let us pirate bro, just one more ngram of books bro

Perhaps this is just a problem with the way the model works. Always requiring new data and unable to use current data, to ponder and expand upon while making new connections about ideas that influenced the author… LLM’s are a smoke and mirrors show, not a real intelligence.

Suddenly millions of people are downloading to "train their AI models".
