You're probably among friends on this site, but outside tech coded spaces, most people understand that publicly available is not the same thing as an unlimited license to do whatever you want.
- ben_w 2y agoWhile true, likely more pertinent that most people don't have a clue what's possible legally or technically until it gets in the news. Can't give informed consent if you don't know what the EULA means or what the machines can do.
- Ekaros 2y agoThis site is weird when you compare it to open source software projects and these same companies selling those as a service on their platforms it is again huge massive problem and exploitation... When the license explicitly allows that, without single legal question. I wonder if things would be different if software could be copied and then recreated by these models by the mega corps. Would there still be such push in favour of it?
- Dylan16807 2y agoThe people arguing in favor of AI use are not in fact arguing for "an unlimited license to do whatever you want" so that solves that apparent hypocrisy nice and quick. Also your theoretical software cloner would also make clones of proprietary software, right? I think that would be welcomed just fine.
- __loam 2y agoThey're apparently arguing for the legal right to use all content on the internet to create a product that is commercial and competes with the original content.
- Dylan16807 2y agoAs long as it's only borrowing very small amounts from any particular source work, I think it's fine for a new work to be commercial and compete with the originals.
- __loam 2y agoThey ingested the whole work.
- Dylan16807 2y agoIs that a problem? Ingesting entire works is the norm, no matter how much gets used.
