Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
This is how it will shake out though.
If you're a big corporation (facebook/nyt), ChatGPT will have to pay you massive licensing fees to scrape. If you're a regular person posting to a platform, you will have no protections because of a platform EULA. The platform will call your work "data" and sell all rights to it, to whatever AI can pay.
The best AI will cost more than you can afford, because they have paid the most for their datasets (your work.)
I'm so excited for the bougie civil war over copyright law!
NPR reported that a "top concern" is that ChatGPT could use The Times' content to become a "competitor" by "creating text that answers questions based on the original reporting and writing of the paper's staff."
Oh no, The NY Times is going to be threatened by garbage in, garbage out ML. I really don't like the constant barrage of "intellectual property" rights, it's a vague term used by publishing companies to overgeneralize large areas of copyright, patent, and trademark law.
to the newspaper I despise like no other
NYT also wanted to exclude Google from scrapping their site to build their AI but cannot without completely removing their links from Google search because Google will not provide that option.
Instead they signed a contract with Google to allow them to use their content in Bard. Then they filed this lawsuit against OpenAI.
