"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.

Look I'm not saying it wouldn't be possible to abuse the system, but that's not how ip works. The example provided isn't transformative nor very applicable from the legal perspective.

At this point and time as far as I know, this concern isn't valid beyond someones imagination.

I’m not willing to test that by putting potentially copyrighted (and without permission) code into any of my code bases.

How do you prevent it with humans? You don't think they've copied code? Has the legal stuff prevented Nintendo from firebombing projects for even looking at the actual fair use before it sees a court?

You do you. I'm just saying that people are not looking at facts and the landscape and going down the fighting an uphill path that's basically unenforceable and probably hurting more than helping.

Putting a readme saying no AI isn't going to protect you from these assholes.

How do you prevent humans from accidentally committing copyright infringement? I feel like that’s an incredibly easy thing to avoid. A human could intentionally commit copyright infringement, but that has always been the case. This policy isn’t meant to stop that, because that’s already illegal.
