The AI should, no doubt, pay to read the book!
In technical terms, these companies are trying to avoid the need to consider content licensing, which is a major violation to content creators.
- Pet_Ant 3y agoYou aren't licensing it. You are reading it. A machine reading it is no different than a human. I mean it really shouldn't be. Should a visually impaired person using a screen reader have to "license" the book?
- SirMaster 3y agoBut not all the works that have been consumed by LLMs are available to read without a license to do so.
- pclmulqdq 3y agoThat particular transformation of the book does well on a fair use analysis. If the blind person were to use the screen reader to put the book on Spotify, it would almost certainly fail a fair use analysis.
- hashtag-til 3y agoPeople come up with the most bizarre corner cases to justify freeloading on other’s intellectual property. Content is obviously being relicensed as the models are not fully open. On top of that, it is also being exposed as pay-for-use subscription models without paying anything to original authors. How is that fair use?
