It's obviously absurd to enforce copyright as bytes are copied around instead of as it is used. Training an LLM is a different thing than re-hosting and giving away copies to other people.
If you don't want people to transform your works - keep them private. You don't own ideas.
- golly_ned 2y agoAs the article says, Meta /was/ giving away copies to other people by seeding the libgen torrents. This isn't the usual case of "should companies be allowed to train on books".
- abigail95 2y agoThen it's a simple case of a rights holder taking them to court. What's the fuss about LLM training in this thread then?
- henriquemaia 2y agoThanks for the link. I wondered what that word meant. From the article: Kopimashin, as in Copy Machine.
