@dimillian@psb_dc If you ask me to think of an "animated sponge" I'll think of Sponge Bob. Many copyrighted materials are part of the common culture. I believe a disclaimer like "the results may contain copyrighted materials, use appropriately and with discernment" suffices, like the current "responses may contain inaccurate information". Over time they can get better at detecting possible violations and warn against it. But it is also part of the mental model we share, of culture. One cannot think of pop without thinking Michael Jackson or Taylor Swift... I believe in the end it is the responsibility of the end user to be mindful and diligent of possible violations. 🤷♂️ OpenAI & Co should not be held responsible, they cannot know how one intends to use those their production. It makes sense however to limit automated scrapping unless authorized, but robots.txt and EULAs already regulate that. (Thinking particularly of the NYTimes for that last bit)
@maccatalan@psb_dc I think along the same lines. And it’ll probably be the outcome of the current lawsuit. A disclaimer that the results might contain copyrighted material. The US has absolutely no incentive to slow current AI innovation peace. And I don’t think it’s that different for a human getting “inspired.” But we can’t really have this conversation on mastodon :p
