Would you be comfortable educating yourself or your own children without the use of any copyrighted material whatsoever?
AI's gonna get trained on it no matter what; nobody wants a product that isn't. By the time OpenAI takes the bullet we will have killed nothing.
- johnnyanmac 3y agoI mean, parents pay for that stuff. Youtube videos are monetized, books are bought, videos at school are bought by the school or licensed for educational use (schools of which are paid for via taxes). Can you really argue that people consuming copyright material aren't benefiting the copyrighter? If you can convince adverts that a scaped hit counts as an organic view, I can concede on your point of "educating yourself on copyrighted material is okay". But given NYT here, that seems to already have been a lost point. >AI's gonna get trained on it no matter what; nobody wants a product that isn't. That's fine. Just license it like everyone else that wants to use copyrighted material for commercial use. Why is that so hard? It's not like Microsoft can't bankroll it.
- JohnFen 3y agoI don't think that educating people is even remotely in the same category as training AI models (and particularly not for training AI models meant to generate profits).
- gorkish 3y agoIf you have children they are already using these very models in their learning if not directly then by proxy. I would have given anything to have access to such a resource during my school years. You’re looking at the wrong end of the horse, as we say where I’m from.
