We didn't seem to mind when Google was doing it back in 1999, or Lycos, Altavista, etc before them... why do we care about the LLM companies doing it now?

- codazoda 1y agoI find LLMs extremely useful but I think the difference is that they regurgitate the content (not verbatim) instead of a link to it. This is not unlike how a human might tell their friend about it.
- Nevermark 1y ago> This is not unlike how a human might tell their friend about it. Is there someone who has read the whole internet? Can we all be there friend? The entire basis of fair use is scale matters.
- bdamm 1y agoGoogle has been regurgitating content right into search results since the very beginning, and they've been providing "synopsis" type of results for over a decade.
- nbulka 1y agoBecause they have terms of service they have to adhere to. We need laws to be lawful.
