Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I hate to break it to you but not all machine learning is llms based. I've been messing with neural based tts from a small project called piper. I'm looking into an image recognition neural network to write software for and train myself. I might try writing it myself for fun 🤔
I'm not interested in anything that uses stolen data like that so my options are limited and relegated to incredibly focused single purpose tools or things I make myself with the tools available.
I'd love to play with image generation and large language models but until all the legal stuff is worked out and individuals get paid for their work I'm not touching it.
To me it's as cut and dry as this. If it's the difference between an individual becoming their own boss/making a better living and a corporation growing their market cap I'll always choose the individual. I know there's a possibility of that growth resulting in more jobs but I'd rather have an environment where small businesses open breed competition and overall improve everyone's life. Let's not give the keys over to companies like Microsoft and close more doors.
I don't care about the discussion of true AI having rights. It's only going to be used to make the wealthy wealthier.
All LLMs are based on neural networks. Furthermore, all neural networks need training, regardless of whether they're an LLM or some other form of machine learning. If you want to ensure there's no stolen material used in the neural net then you have to train it yourself with material that you have the copyright to.
Boy I love it when people don't read.
I was expanding on your point, you twat. But hey, just be a snarky cunt. I'm sure that'll get you far.
Sorry I thought you were being a smartass and just skimmed through it. Truly my bad.
Edit: it's hard to tell intention sometimes and I really do appreciate you summarizing what I said. It's true and a more approachable answer than what I gave.
My reaction was probably a bit heavy handed as well. My apologies.
Sorry I feel strongly about this. Play with it all you want it's really cool shit! But please don't pay for access to it and if you need some art or a professional write-up please just pay someone to do it.
It'll mean so much to your fellow man in these uncertain times and the quality will be so much better.
I'm not paying anyone for anything, not OpenAI techbro grifters and not any freelancer grifters
