    If they can just steal a creator’s work, how do they suppose creators will be able to afford continuing to be creators?

    Right. They think we have enough original works that the machines can just make any new creations.

    😠

      The companies like record studio who already own all the copyrights aren’t going to pay creators for something they already owned.

      All the data has already been signed away. People are really optimistic about an industry that has consistently fucked everyone they interact with for money.

      It is entirely possible that the entire construct of copyright just isn’t fit to regulate this and the “right to train” or to avoid training needs to be formulated separately.

      The maximalist, knee-jerk assumption that all AI training is copying is feeding into the interests of, ironically, a bunch of AI companies. That doesn’t mean that actual authors and artists don’t have an interest in regulating this space.

      The big takeaway, in my book, is copyright is finally broken beyond all usability. Let’s scrap it and start over with the media landscape we actually have, not the eighteenth century version of it.

        I’m fairly certain this is the correct answer here. Also there is a seperation between judicative and legislative. It’s the former which is involved, but we really need to bother the latter. It’s the only way, unless we want to use 18th century tools on the current situation.

        Yes precisely.

        I don’t see a situation where the actual content creators get paid.

        We either get open source ai, or we get closed ai where the big ai companies and copyright companies make bank.

        I think people are having huge knee jerk reactions and end up supporting companies like Disney, Universal Music and Google.
