This sounds like socialism is good for capitalists

Sadly this comes down to OpenAI petitioning Trump, and expecting trump to do anything that could stop a scam like AI is pointless.

Porque no los dos?

The ai race is over AND we abolish the copyright bullshit laws we have now?

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 11 points 2 days ago

I always felt using publicly available but copyrighted works could be ok but only if the model is publicly available as well

I don’t think they’re wrong in saying that if they aren’t allowed to train on copyrighted works then they will fall behind. Maybe I missed it in the article, but Japan for example has that exact law (use of copyright to train generative AI is allowed).

Personally I think we need to give them somewhat of an out by letting them do it but then taxing the fuck out of the resulting product. “You can use copyrighted works for training but then 50% of your profits are taxed”. Basically a recognition that the sum of all copyrighted works is a societal good and not just an individual copyright holders.

How many pages has a human author read and written before they can produce something worth publishing? I’m pretty sure that’s not even a million pages. Why does an AI require a gazillion pages to learn, but the quality is still unimpressive? I think there’s something fundamentally wrong with the way we teach these models.

My main takeaway is that some contrived notion of "national security" has now become an acceptable justification for business decisions in the US.

🤞🤞 🙏

Its simple really. We need to steal from humans who make things to train our computers to make things so the computers can replace the humans who make things and we dont want to pay the humans who made the original things because they will be replaced soon enough anyway. Easy peasy. Do you guys even capitalism?

Apparantly their trying to get Deepseek banned again, really doesn't like competition this guy.

His personal race is over? Oooohhhh, so sorry for him.

AI is not over at all. Maybe he himself will not become the ruler of the world now. No loss.

Then perish, OpenAI. If your only innovation is a legal loophole then you did nothing.

So, did we win?

[–] liquidthex@reddthat.com 3 points 1 day ago

It's so wild how laws just have no idea what to do with you if you just add one layer of proxy. "Nooo I'm not stealing and plagerizing, it's the AI doing it!"
