that's such a funny joke, tell me another one. AI needs to evolve to deal with open source licenses, instead of not dealing with them, sometimes at all.
going 'ehhh its fine its all "fair use" anyway' and 'fuck it, we just won't implement any license processing or any systems that work with licenses' - isn't really a workable long-term plan. mostly because it's just not a solution. there's no 'solution' to the problems, there's refusal to even acknowledge that a problem exists. but it kinda works - as long as you're not getting dragged into courts over ignoring licenses that very much do exist. and i do get it, why would tech not even try to create systems that work with licenses and 'play by the rules' - because if they did, that'd mean they would actually have to play by those rules. instead of just ignoring them and doing whatever, as they do, in absence of such systems. but like, that's not a workable business. licenses are money. intellectual property is money. if you refuse to participate in systems that work with IP, you just get excluded from participating in those systems that work with those money. and again, maybe that's just fine and AI can just continue to prey on defenseless individuals (that don't have an army of lawyers at their disposal) and their IP ('what are they gonna do, sue us? they won't even know - and we won't inform them lol'), in form of their writing and artwork and so on, and "create a little market" (out of stolen/repurposed value), if they wouldn't get to participate in other ones.
