Do you repay publishers for information you’ve summarized or new insights you’ve gained after consuming their content? How is it different when AI does the same thing?
- soperj 3y agoYes. They get a subscription fee or are paid by advertising. No one pays to advertise to an AI.
- Workaccount2 3y agoThere are people who still don't block ads?
- episteme 3y agoWell yes or there would be nothing to block.
- AISnakeOil 3y agoRepay everyone in the form of UBI, tax the AI!!!
- darkwater 3y agoI paid for the newspaper, book copy or museum visit from which I learnt and got inspired. And like me, million of people did over the years. And yes, I also pirated part of that content as well.
- indigoabstract 3y agoYou can't really compare machines with people when it comes to scale. You can scale the volume of work for a machine in a way that would be impossible with people. No amount of Mechanical Turks could make content at the rate that Generative AI systems like ChatGPT, Dall-E, etc. can. Treating content scraped from an original source without consent as fair use for training a machine somehow seems wrong. Especially since this AI system is then used to make money and that content is essential to its ability to do so, though without giving anything back to the original content creators. Seems natural that any law regarding AI copyright should take these matters into account.
- denebula 3y agoFalse equivalence. You stated how its different in the premise on top of that
- 112233 3y agoAre you implying normal humans get access to the data used in training GPts for free? Where can I read all those books for free, from an offline copy and without ads?
