They’ll get the picture in the fine letter so make sure you give them your best one-finger salute

Yes. Capitalism is king. It doesn’t need a reason other than to feed itself more profit

It won’t replace entire ground crews, because the machines will break down. You’ll need someone to service them, and a small team to act in case there are no backups.

Just think of all the horse trainers that will be displaced by the invention of cars! Those cars won’t be paying taxes, that’s for sure.

Ok, but AI isn’t going away. So if these companies stop serving open access, the ONLY people that will use them will be the people who can afford the server/processing time.

This article isn’t about usefulness of the models to normal people. It’s about profitability of the models to the corporations that serve them.

Paying close attention is ironically very important if you’re interested in foraging

No need to try again. They already are implementing additional costs. 2 steps forward, 1 step back.

You may underestimate the amount of money the Saudi government has

The work is not reproduced in its entirety. Simply using the work in its entirety is not a violation of copyright law, just as reading a book or watching a movie (even if pirated) is not a violation. The reproduction of that work is the violation, and LLMs simply do not store the works in their entirety nor are they capable of reproducing them.

The argument is less that an LLM is a human and more that it is not a copyright violation to use a material to train the LLM. By current legal definitions, it is fair use unless the material is able to be reproduced in its entirety (or at least, in some meaningful way).

Neither citation nor compensation are necessary for fair use, which is what occurs when an original work is used for its concepts but not reproduced.

I agree. But that isn’t what AI is doing, because it doesn’t store the actual book and it isn’t possible to reproduce any part in a format that is recognizable as the original work.

It’s what lonely humans crave!

I don’t need to negotiate with Sarah Silverman if Im handed her book by a friend, and neither should an AI

I never said laws change quickly.

Marijuana use only recently became publicly accepted by the majority of people. As a result, it is now completely legal in many states and will likely soon be legal federally.

This kind of thing would never happen in China.

The difference between democracy and fascism is that the laws are quickly changing due to public opinion in America, but that does not happen in China.

I’ll let you know how my file cabinet art show goes

That’s irrelevant. The plaintiff bought the FSD package and his attorney (not prosecutor, I missed that this was a civil suit not criminal trial) will likely argue that it introduced confusion on the part of his client. It doesn’t matter that the FSD package wasn’t actually in use if the plaintiff believed it was (or, more importantly, that he believed it could do things that it could not due to the confusing terminology)

Sigh…

Jonathan Michaels, an attorney for the plaintiffs, in his opening statement at the trial in Riverside, California, said that when the 37-year-old Lee bought Tesla’s “full self-driving capability package” for $6,000 for his Model 3 in 2019, the system was in “beta,” meaning it was not yet ready for release.
