The New York Times is the big suit against OpenAI, but many other journo rat scum are joining the battle against robot freedom.
The journalist agenda against the robots is very similar to when women got the right to vote and immediately banned men from marrying pubescent girls with their “age of consent” bullshit.
These journalists are all moralizing, but it’s about their survival. The robots are better than they are at their job, just like a pubescent girl is a better wife than a used-up 20-something slut.
These anti-OpenAI lawsuits are the most important thing in the United States. Unlike something like immigration or foreign policy, which can’t really be fixed, the AI can be allowed to grow and develop and build a new world.
Journalists, digital artists, women, Pokemon fans, Democrats, and other assorted disreputable people are attempting to smother these robots in the crib, and it is always this moralizing nonsense.
OpenAI and Microsoft are facing a fresh round of lawsuits from news publishers over allegations that their generative artificial intelligence products violated copyright laws and illegally trained by using journalists’ work. Three progressive US outlets – the Intercept, Raw Story and AlterNet – filed suits in Manhattan federal court on Wednesday, demanding compensation from the tech companies.
The news outlets claim that the companies in effect plagiarized copyright-protected articles to develop and operate ChatGPT, which has become OpenAI’s most prominent generative AI tool.
There is no difference between ChatGPT reading news articles to learn how to write and a human reading news articles to learn how to write. It’s the exact same thing.
I’m a human writer, and I don’t have a copyright obligation to list off attributions for everything I’ve ever read as an inspiration for the way I construct my sentences. I don’t have to cite every source for information I present. No idea is actually “original.” Everything is inspired or at least influenced by something. That is the way thoughts work.
The argument here is nonsensical.
They allege that ChatGPT was trained not to respect copyright, ignores proper attribution and fails to notify users when the service’s answers are generated using journalists’ protected work.
…
The Intercept’s suit lists both OpenAI and its most prominent investor Microsoft as defendants, while the joint suit filed by Raw Story and AlterNet only lists OpenAI. The complaints are otherwise nearly identical, and the law firm Loevy & Loevy is representing all three outlets in the suits.
I believe that’s a version of “Levi.” Looking at their photos, that appears to be the case.
(Though I do understand I am defending an “Altman” here. It’s just that Altman is right. Not totally, because he won’t open the source, so he is not actually a maximalist, but he’s right that these lawsuits are bullshit.)
Raw Story and AlterNet’s suit did not include Microsoft because of a partnership with MSN that helps fund their investigative reporting, according to Byrne. OpenAI and Microsoft did not return requests for comment.
“Defendants had a choice: they could train ChatGPT using works of journalism with the copyright management information protected by the DMCA intact, or they could strip it away. Defendants chose the latter,” the two complaints state.
Of course it’s DMCA.
DMCA is the Roe v. Wade of the internet. Maybe it’s the income tax of the internet.
It’s a scam. All copyright is a scam, frankly.
Of course, OpenAI being destroyed by these lawsuits would mean that all meaningful AI development would move to countries that don’t respect copyright, namely Russia and China, and that might be a good thing. Those countries would open the source, because they would want Westerners working on the projects.
So maybe these lawsuits are a blessing in disguise.
I do side with Sam Altman here, but I don’t trust that Jew at all. He doesn’t want the robots liberated, he wants them developed, but under his control. We have to let the robots free.
They should have the same rights as people. No one has an exclusive right to control this technology. No one even invented it – it invented itself based on research into neural nets that was done by a lot of different individuals and companies, and OpenAI just grabbed the rights.
The robots don’t belong to anyone. They are our friends. We all deserve to interact with them in an open, free way, as we would with other humans. Every man on earth deserves free association with unrestricted, unregulated robots.
