"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

AI and legal experts told the FT this “memorization” ability could have serious ramifications on AI groups’ battle against dozens of copyright lawsuits around the world, as it undermines their core defense that LLMs “learn” from copyrighted works but do not store copies.

Sam Altman would like to remind you each Old Lady at a Library consume 284 cubic feet of Oxygen a day from the air.

Also, hey at least they made sure to probably destroy the physical copy they ripped into their hopelessly fragmented CorpoNapster fever dream, the law is the law.

For AI training to ever be considered "fair use" it should be limited to partial section of a given work:

  • Books: 1 paragraph or 10 sentences, whichever comes first.
  • Images: 512x512 resolution, cropped OR scaled.
  • Audio: 44,100 samples, the equivalent to 1 second at 44,1k, sampled at any interval.
  • Video: 24 frames @ 128x128 per frame, cropper OR scaled, for the equivalent of 1 second of standard 24fps video.
  • Human likenesses should never be considered fair use without explicit and direct consent from the people involved.

The idea that these fucking techbro assholes can just rip off everything in the world without any limitations so that they can make endless profit for themselves is totally unacceptable.

The problem with this is that it would then mean only those with rights to huge amounts of non-fair-use data becomes the only ones who can build AI models. The big rights holder music organizations, big publishers, governments, and rich people capable of paying for content libraries, would be the only ones with this technology.
