So you are disavowing the concept of intellectual property?

Only been hoping to abolish it for my entire adult life.

Yes. I’ve been against copyright my entire life.

Well as long as we are all aware we’re hurdling towards techno communism. Better not fuck it up and end up ruled by fascists. Not looking great on that front so far.

...presumably

You make a great argument for expanding the definition of copyright to include protection from use in AI training.

Maybe so. Maybe a disruptive technology now exists that renders the modus operandi of many industries moot. It's called disruptive for a reason.

I am also of the opinion that AI weights aren't copyrightable, as they're the result of an automatic process. "Open source" weights are a laughable non-sequitur.

I am not generally of the opinion that we need to expand copyright in order to protect a status quo.


As long as people keep electing fascist billionaires to loot the country, the fight continues

Well unfortunately your steak dinner in this analogy is a human steak. That someone else was stabbed for to be served up to you. You don’t have a problem eating it, but you don't think you should be on the menu.

So all AI use is harmful?

Moving the goalposts already, eh? We were discussing the hypocrisy of big tech cannibalizing copyrighted works for their AI products, and then getting mad that people are using the tools to do the same to their IP. Let’s not try to shift the argument to the general morality of AI use.

I'm also sure 47 would be unhappy that they are using AI at the top of the page, going against his latest royal decrees.


So you're saying either way, we are going to get a polished turd? lol


Three black people in a year across the literal entire planet’s population and you are convinced it’s a racist conspiracy?


Automated scripts that target everything they can. Isn’t that one of the core lessons to take away from the last year? As hacking becomes commoditized and the cost per attack shrinks, it becomes more profitable to cast a wide net, and everyone will become a target.


And thanks to AI, every bespoke system can get a bespoke attack.


Accidentally indeed. Im sure it’s tough to do anything intentionally when you are sieving through the slop heaps.


Indeed. This mass surveillance should have been stopped long ago.
