Humans can also create works that compete with the copyrighted works they've been trained on. Should music schools and conservatoriums start banning all commercial works during lessons? Should students forfeit a % of their lifetime earnings distributed to the copyright holders of everything they have listened to in their lives so far? Granted, nobody will be happy with computers taking over chunks of 'creative' work, but this hard stance will not hold water.
I applaud the courage to stand by personal principles over the soft embrace of a nice job though. Not many people can do it, and we need more of it.
- lancesells 3y agoI always find it odd when comparing humans to computers. These models are built on stolen goods with billions of dollars but they get compared to a single person who has a passion to learn and create. This is a colonization of humanity from the wealthiest companies and people in the world. This is more comparable to Nestle stealing our water and selling it back to us than someone learning scales at their school.
