    Remember:

    Copyright law as a whole will stay the same. In the court of law, you will need to prove that you indeed operate a very big AI company that indeed does AI things before they will let you off the hook for massive copyright infringement. You can’t just use that excuse casually! Rules will be for thee, not the actual AI-companees.

    Holding companies responsible for the infringement of them using copyrighted materials without restitution to the creator is literally the only tool we have in ever changing current copyright laws, and we’re watching it be waved away.

    “you cant POSSIBLY expect us, to respect HUMAN RIGHTS if we want progress? i mean the survival of the human species (me and my friends) relies on cheap and free labour and the starvation, death, and exploitation of the masses. if we want to SURVIVE as a species (me and my friends) WE GOTTA EXPLOIT THE PEOPLE”

    Looks like it’s Sam Altman’s turn to ram his hand up there to make the puppet talk now. That is word for word what that tech douche nozzle says.

      This is definitely what that is, but I take it this also means he’s saying pirating is ok for people and not just tech corporations. Safe to assume? Bc otherwise it just seems like more entitled rich fucks making the rules for everyone else that they can ignore

    Funny that when it was about protecting profits copyright was such a cornerstone principle but when it’s about protecting profits it can also be set aside.

      There was an episode of behind the bastards I was listening to a while back where they mentioned some dude who was using an AI tool to scrape the internet to steal other people’s art, so people started doing something that prevented him from optimally stealing their art.

      I can’t remember what exactly, but the guy started whining that whatever people were doing was “illegal” bc it was damaging his tool he was using to steal other people’s shit for his own profit. Like somebody telling you that it’s illegal to prevent them from efficiently stealing your property bc it interferes with their livelihood. How dare you!

      Anyway, that’s the kind of vibes I get from this.

      I’ll setup a JellAIfin server immediately. It’s just the regular Jellyfin code, but I am compiling my own version - it has “AI” added as a comment to every line of code before I compiled.

    Sam Altman approves this message.

    Hundred percent he got a script from a lobbyist to create this sound bite.

      Sam Altman defending the ban on Republican state AI regulations in 2025:

      Altman, during the hearing, said that Texas had been “unbelievable” in incentivizing major AI projects. “I think that would be a good thing for other states to study,” Altman said. He predicted that the Abilene site would be the “largest AI training facility in the world.” But Altman also later cautioned against a patchwork regulatory framework for AI.

      “It is very difficult to imagine us figuring out how to comply with 50 different sets of regulations,” said Altman. “One federal framework that is light touch, that we can understand, and it lets us move with the speed that this moment calls for, seems important and fine.”

      Aww, it would make it “difficult” for you to create your technocratic dystopia? 😭🎻

      Trump’s former CTO and current Science Advisor Michael Kratsios about why we don’t need regulations on facial recognition tech in 2019:

      “A patchwork of regulation of technology is not beneficial for the country. We want to avoid that. Facial recognition has important roles—for example, finding lost or displaced children. There are use cases, but they need to be underpinned by values.”

      Not beneficial for the country or the corporations? Always thinking about the children first, even back then. Please tell me more about how we’re just too dumb to understand how all of this is for our own good.

    This basically means some people are now owned by corporations or at least everything they do is owned by them.

    “I need it for my business plan to work out” is not a great legal argument for when you’re trying to override others rights.
