"The NYT is suing both and for "massive infringement, commercial and misappropriation" of its work." Good that a big, powerful publisher does it!
For and are only a gold mine to exploit without their consent. "Its content-generating product would be impossible to create without the company's use of human-created copyrighted work for free." https://www.salon.com/2024/01/09/impossible-openai-admits-chatgpt-cant-exist-without-pinching-copyrighted-work/
You work for free, they make billions. @writing

@NatureMC @writing OK, but how would a victory by the NYT help artists and writers? OpenAI stop being able to do what they do, but it doesn't help anyone else except for the large content conglomerates big enough to strike a licensing deal.

@NatureMC @writing It's the "helps all" that is not so clear to me. It's not feasible to pay me the 1/1000th of a cent in value my mastodon posts add to their training set. Nor is it feasible to get everyone to opt our or in. So what's the answer - kill AI off?

I suppose a lot of the worry is due to the fact that OpenAI and others are using the works - in a tiny way - and also making tech that could supplant those who created them. That's a bridge too far for many.
