> Soon AI writers and programmers will be so good, that even if they do not reproduce copyright content verbatim, they will be able to replace large % of the future work of the people that produced the copyrighted content the AI was trained on. This seems like a clear harm.
That is not the harm that copyright is meant to protect. It's not there to keep lamp lighters employed.
- Palmik 3y agoI agree we should not try to preserve jobs that are no longer needed. Though I don't think there's any copyright involved in your analogy :) I just think we should be clear about the potential short-to-medium term effects / harm. And given how transformative this technology can be, we may need to come up with solutions that don't fit into existing frameworks -- e.g. making sure that the datasets and models are open access.
