Every human was taught their language from other humans. It would be interesting to see how creative an inspiring author would be with zero literary exposure ever in their life. And that's all AI is asking, to have the same access to reading material as anyone else. To not be starved arbitrarily from having the same access to the world as a human.
> Will this disingenuous line of "reasoning" ever die? A computer != A human
Who cares? Stop being so compuphobic. Artificial intelligences should have as much access to reading material as any human.
> ... humans already have to get proper access to the works of other authors.
Of course. On this we agree. AI should have no extra access to written material and should have to respect the same laws as any human.

The people making the AIs are asking everyone else to blindly believe that using the word "learning" a bunch makes a computer and a human equivalent entities. > Who cares? Quite a lot of people, as can be shown in literally any discussion where AI comes up. > Artificial intelligences should have as much access to reading material as any human. Why? Other than AI creators wanting to make infinite money by generating spam en-masse, of course.
- ta8645 3y ago> No, the AI itself isn't asking anything because it's not a sentient being capable That is really just your human ego and sense of superiority speaking. Lesser beings might not have the cognitive capabilities you do, but they still should not be discriminated against. > Quite a lot of people. A lot of people are racist too. Doesn't make it right. > Why? Other than AI creators wanting to make infinite money That's just cynical. There are a lot of people working on AI that have no such motivation.
