Nah, it’s deliberately formulated so it can be pulled out of context, misrepresented and cause outrage. And it works.

Ha. I knew there was something fishy about that. Anyway, I’m done feeding this troll. I hope he got his worth out of shilling for Altman.

Did I see a sportsball event? I can talk about it to whom I want when I want.

Sure.

Did I buy a physical book? I can take as many photos of it as I want.

Nope. You can’t, for example, take a picture of all the pages and then redistribute those.

Now answer my question if you plan to go after another Daycare, Disney. No more evasions

Only if you tell me whether or not you stopped beating your wife.

What part is confusing you exactly?

I initially thought you were ignorant of the core principle of intellectual property, but now I see you’re just wilfully delusional.

Let me get this straight - if a vengeful ex or someone else gets a hand on naked pictures of you, they can do whatever they want to them? You wouldn’t want any limits on their ability to alter them and spread them?

Yes. Your content and tech. And you even get a say in how others get to use it. Thanks to laws like these. Not to someone else’s.

So what will happen to art if we only disallow AI models from learning from copyrighted performances, whilst still allowing them to do so from public domain and licensed works (and obviously not changing anything for humans who seek inspiration)?

Quite the contrary, actually. Thanks to this law you won’t have to watermark something you own, in order to prevent companies to use it for profit.

Unless of course you have the misconception that downloading something that someone else made is the same as owning it. In which case, I understand this might be difficult for you to grasp.

Not OP, but I also don’t think it’s the same thing. But even if it were, the consequences are nowhere near the same.

A person might be able to learn to replicate an artist’s style, given enough practice and patience, but it would take them a long time, and the most “damage” they could do with that, is create new content at roughly the same rate as the original creator.

It would take an AI infinitely less time to acquire that same skill, and infinitely less time to then create that content. So given those factors, I think there’s an enormous difference between 1 person learning to copy your skill, or a company that does it as a business model.

Btw, if you didn’t know it yet - search engines don’t need to create a large language model in order to find web content. They’ve been working fine (one night even say Better) without doing that.

Exposed credentials means that somebody got sloppy the password. So yeah, “stolen creds”. Give the fact that a) NYT seems knows which credentials were exposed, and b) We haven’t seen hundreds of other high(er) profile companies have their private repos breached, it is far more likely that NYT fucked up, and not Microsoft (which is what you implied, with nothing to back it up - other than a very narrow-minded definition of the word hack).

Upvoted because this article was an interesting read.

This actual data is not necessarily representative of the entire situation

You keep saying that, but never back it up with any reason.

Everyone here agrees the data is incomplete, but that it’s the best data we have. Only you keep implying that it’s incorrect because [ever less verifiable, unspecified reasons]. Holy hypocrisy, batman.

“All I did was misrepresent something harmless, done by a company that’s doing so much more horrible things that I shouldn’t be using their product in the first place, and now people are calling me out on it. Clearly, they are wrong.”

My bad. I thought clickbait just referred to headlines that don’t deliver. Today I learned.

Thanks for emphasising I never called the article clickbait, just outrage-bait, circlejerk and low effort. And I do still think posting it here is just that.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. But seeing as Apple won’t even allow other rendering engines on iphones, I doubt Google is bullying them into anything.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think it’s clickbait, but personally I’m not that interested in a retelling of how he started gutting twitter shortly after he bought it last year. Maybe it’s not this article per se, just the straw of musk spam that broke the camels back.

Honestly, outrage-bait / circlejerk articles like these is why I stopped using twitter and reddit to begin with. Hur dur, Elon bad, upvotes please. I don’t disagree - I just don’t want to see this kind of low-effort posts, which OP seems to excel at. Time for a mute.

That’s not on Google though, that’s on the makers of those websites for not wanting to test and support other browsers. Still shitty behaviour, but not googles shitty behaviour.
