This is almost like the "penalty for false DMCA" argument that is often made. It's not clear they were wrong to do so, the photographer did cost them legal fee

This is almost like the "penalty for false DMCA" argument that is often made.
It's not clear they were wrong to do so, the photographer did cost them legal fees for something that is explicitly legal.
- Archipelagia 4y agoIs it legal though? Article mentioned forbidding the use of crawlers. Besides, it talks a lot how they only link to the image... but that's not how AI works, right? Maybe after incorporating the photo into its weights the model no longer needs the original, but it doesn't seem like an explicitly legal thing.
- Eisenstein 4y ago> but that's not how AI works, right? What this organization is doing is making a database of links to pictures with metadata that includes what is in the pictures. AIs can use this to train. The organization is not using it to train AI nor do they host the image.
- Archipelagia 4y agoI didn't realize that, thank you
