In general, we need a data bill of rights. Corporations are enslaving us digitally, and I feel it's reaching a boiling point.

- andybak 3y agoThere's plenty of AI being trained by hobbyists, artists and enthusiasts too.
- graphe 3y agoThere are zero incentives for them to comply and zero ways a person can make them accountable. If your SSN can be leaked and nothing will happen why would they care about scrappable pictures? The only times they care are when it can cost them money. SD didn't care about visual artists but could not do the same for generative music since the rights are managed by deep pockets.
- thelittleone 3y agoAI might lead to more paywalled sites which would suck.
- happytiger 3y agoFrankly, and not directed personally, but that’s not really true. Government can make the incentive — and has. Legislation can put the teeth in societal goods like this even if financial incentives don’t. California has done exactly this with their right to be deleted law. https://www.foley.com/en/insights/publications/2023/10/california-expands-data-deletion-rights-brokers#:~:text=By%20January%201%2C%202026%2C%20the,associated%20service%20provider%20or%20contractor https://www.foley.com/en/insights/publications/2023/10/calif....
- graphe 3y agoThe two parties are the state and the data brokers. The individual has no way to do this on their own. But you're right, it doesn't have to be true. Maybe someone will have precedence and sue a company. Until then I am convinced it is true.
- happytiger 3y agoFair enough. I respect your logic.

- Retric 3y agoThe complete lack of power or ownership of your work. Do you think anyone consented to have AI companies scrap GitHub etc?
- pixl97 3y agoEh, you borrowed from society to create 'your work' and now you want to lock it up like you've created it wholly.

- cratermoon 3y agoNo, it's the generative AI companies that are taking from society all the data and locking it up in their opaque models and selling that as if they created it wholly.
- Retric 3y agoBy that standard no copyrighted works have any protection, except clearly that isn’t the world we live in.
- porridgeraisin 3y agoHow I wish it was
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoAbsolutely, I am happy to give back to society if AI overlords do the same - make models and datasets opensource. Kinda hypocritical to infringe on copyright while expecting protection themselves

- happytiger 3y agoI just finished getting downvoted in another thread for writing these very words. Couldn’t agree more.
