Who steals books from the library? The Creative Commons Org? I tried looking it up online and can't really find what you are referring to.
Do you mean that they literally take books from the library and never return them, or do they copy library books an slap a new license on them? Are the books that they do that to in the public domain?
People who make AI models
they steal data for AI
"by the ___" is an expression for quantities
Ah, I see what you are saying. Thanks for taking the time to explain.
I guess I'm confused what that licence has to do with AI though.
I know onlinepersona put AI on the end of that link, but from what I can tell it's just a normal copy left license.
I guess some conceivably could put such a licence on an AI generated thing, but I'm not sure they would be able to enforce it unless the model wasn't trained on stolen data.
They might be able to copyright the prompt though.
Idk, we will probably have to rely on the courts to determine something like that, which means we will get the worst possible outcome.
