While I’ma proponent of free information and loosening copyright, allowing billion dollar companies to package up the sum of human creation and resell statistical models that mimic the content and style of everyone… is a bit far.
Fair use is for humans.
- brnaftr361 3y agoYeah, but hypothetically should open source projects be offered special protections? I feel like they should, and with certain caveats where, say, a company like Meta is allowed to claim fair use if and only if they free up the entire ecosystem as they deploy it. But yeah, having private ostensibly profitable models based on other people's work without giving them free access to it is not fair. Give some get some.
- colechristensen 3y agoMaybe… maybe restrictions freed up for resources in the public domain… that is no patent, copyright, license or ownership rights of any kind. As in you could distribute the thing unmolested but that’s it.
