I imagine you aren’t talking about large companies that just let ai loose in their code base. Are these like companies that fired half their staff and realized llms couldn’t make up for the difference, or small companies that tried to make new apps without a proper team and came up short?

There is currently no regulation against humans creating slop or making bad business decisions. Prohibiting the use of tools for certain tasks to save jobs is a recipe for disaster, which is actually what you are saying I think.

You are a mouthpiece, I’m going to assume everything you say is a lie or grossly misrepresented. Post your sources, bootlicker.

If you are a moron, ya, it is.

A lot of our laws are indeed obsolete. I think the best solution would be to force copy left licenses on anything using public created data.

But I’ll take the wild west we have now with no walls then any kind of copyright dystopia. Reddit did successfully sell it’s data to Google for 60 million. Right now, you can legally scrape anything you want off reddit, it is an open garden in every sense of the word (even if they dont like it). It’s a lot more legal then using pirated books, but Google still bet 60 million that copyright laws would swing broadly in their favor.

I think it’s very foolhardy to even hint at a pro copyright stance right now. There is a very real chance of AI getting monopolized and this is how they will do it.

The companies like record studio who already own all the copyrights aren’t going to pay creators for something they already owned.

All the data has already been signed away. People are really optimistic about an industry that has consistently fucked everyone they interact with for money.

Because of the vast amount of data needed, there will be no competitive viable open source solution if half the data is kept in a walled garden.

This is about open weights vs closed weights.

Yes precisely.

I don’t see a situation where the actual content creators get paid.

We either get open source ai, or we get closed ai where the big ai companies and copyright companies make bank.

I think people are having huge knee jerk reactions and end up supporting companies like Disney, Universal Music and Google.

The lawsuit would not have benefitted their fellow authors but their publishing houses and the big ai companies.

It’s been shown again and again that evs require less maintenance.

I can’t find anything on such a tax?

I feel like there has been an uptick in pro oil bots in the past week. Oil is a pretty ugly business too? What is wrong with you people.

We are in the middle of a crisis. You don’t need an other reason.

You can either look ugly in an EV or drive straight towards dystopia in a cool looking ICE vehicle.

They speak English too

80% of the book market is owned by 5 publishing houses.

They want to create a monopoly around AI and kill open source. The copyright industry is not our friend. This is a win, not a loss.

Are you Google’s official bootlicker?

There is no link and you should list them anyways. As it stands, this is click bait without the click.

This would bring up the cost of entry for making a model and nothing more. OpenAI will buy the data if they have too and so will google. The money will only go to the owners of the New York Times and its shareholders, none of the journalists who will be let go in the coming years will see a dime.

We must keep the entry into the AI game as low as possible or the only two players will be Microsoft and Google. And as our economy becomes increasingly AI driven, this will cement them owning it.

Pragmatism or slavery, these are the two options.
