So what will happen to art if we only disallow AI models from learning from copyrighted performances, whilst still allowing them to do so from public domain and licensed works (and obviously not changing anything for humans who seek inspiration)?

Not OP, but I also don’t think it’s the same thing. But even if it were, the consequences are nowhere near the same.

A person might be able to learn to replicate an artist’s style, given enough practice and patience, but it would take them a long time, and the most “damage” they could do with that, is create new content at roughly the same rate as the original creator.

It would take an AI infinitely less time to acquire that same skill, and infinitely less time to then create that content. So given those factors, I think there’s an enormous difference between 1 person learning to copy your skill, or a company that does it as a business model.

Btw, if you didn’t know it yet - search engines don’t need to create a large language model in order to find web content. They’ve been working fine (one night even say Better) without doing that.

Funny when the 1 month old account remarks that to the 9 month old account.

Hate to break it to you bub: the only places where the majority of people do not think cryptocurrencies are a scam, are crypto hangouts, and places where they haven’t heard about cryptos at all.

Very likely, yes. I guess it also helps to have quite a broad definition of what being a nazi means.

It’s tricky. Once you state “these subjects are above criticism”, it will become very easy to silence any criticism. It doesn’t take a lot of imagination to see how such a structure could be abused by those in charge of it.

Who watches the watchmen.

I’m not sure where the goal posts are now. I thought this started out with deplatforming single people who spread misinformation, but now you’re considering half a countries political spectrum?

A NAS is a home storage server, like Synology that you can use to store images, videos and backups, etc on so you can access them from any computer or device in your home. With a couple of clicks, they can easily run applications like Syncthing or Resilio Sync, which are kinda like Dropbox, except you don’t have to pay Dropbox, you’ll just be storing the files on your own service.

If that’s too much to handle, you can still just store your Keepass file in Dropbox, so that it’s available on all your devices. But in the end you’ll still be storing your personal data on someone else’s harddisk.

So in short, is at easy as using a prefab service? No, you’ll have to invest some time, money, and knowledge yourself. But in the end, your data is not gathered in silo together with countless other users, which makes it a lot less attractive for hackers to try and steal it.

Yeah, it’s hilarious :( I have no idea how that’s legal under GDPR. So that’s why I’m part of the small group of WhatsApp-resisting signal users in my country.

saying that if I don’t create an account then they will do it for me

I would report the hell out of them, both to Facebook and HR. That’s literally the definition of identity theft.

Although the point is kind of moot - because of all the people who know you, that do willingly share their everything (including their phone contacts, photos etc), Facebook already has a You-shaped hole, even if you don’t have an account.

So when I got pressured into creating a Facebook account (not as badly as you were though), I was so creeped out by the amount of data they already had on me, I immediately deleted my account. It felt like being invited into someone’s home for the first time and seeing a stalker shrine dedicated to yourself.

“it’s okay, I do this with everyone.”

No, it really is not.

…so far.

For those that don’t mind self-hosting, which can be as easy as just running syncthing or resilio sync on your NAS, I can really recommend keepass.

No censorship / unable to delete content? What happens when somebody decides to post illegal content like CP? I know that’s an easy target, but either it has a way to deal with that, or it’s going to attract a very scary crowd, at least as a subset.

Thanks for putting an actual summary in there. Much appreciated.

The best moment to act was yesterday. The second best moment is now.

It’s not too late.

No, the whole point is that an isp should not be forced to do anything, unless ordered to do so by a court.

As the title mentions, this an endless chase if you approach it like this. Vigilante mobs aren’t going to solve this, it’s going to take specialist agencies with mandates to request data civilians can’t. Crimes are being committed there (not murders, but a good way to get the scare votes, I suppose), and there are laws in place to deal with that.

As mentioned several times in this thread, shifting the responsibility for what is allowed to be said on the Internet from governments to corporate entities is a terrible precedent.

Edit: Nevermind. I see you’re also responsible for this wonderful gem:

The position is intellectually dishonest unless you’re actually pro-killing-transgender people.

There’s no point in arguing with you.

Hear hear. Obviously this site should be shut down. But it should be done so on basis of fair trial. Not because of mob justice, or corporations that answer only to shareholders.

You’re ruining the circlejerk >:(

Retroactively, in 2015?

This entire site looks like a defamation case waiting to happen. Even if it is based in reality (big if), it’s obviously collected here to ruin the guys reputation.

Either OP just outed themselves as an accomplice to stealing government data (for which there is no statute of limitations AFAIK), or its just some piece of fiction that has no place here. Either way, not smart.
