The New York Times is suing OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement, claiming the two companies built their AI models by “copying and using millions” of the publication’s articles and now “directly compete” with its content as a result....

Last week's spectacular soap-opera hijacked the attention of millions of normal, productive people and nonsensually crammed them full of the fine details of the debate between () and (AKA e/acc), a genuinely absurd debate that was allegedly at the center of the drama.

So, Microsoft is silently installing Copilot onto Windows Server 2022 systems and this is a disaster.

How can you push a tool that siphons data to a third party onto a security-critical system?

What privileges does it have upon install? Who thought this is a good idea? And most importantly, who needs this?

Hi there, if you don’t want me to hit you, please carry this sign that says “please don’t hit me” with you always. Otherwise, I can’t possibly be held responsible if I hit you. Because it’s in my nature to hit you. I can’t live without hitting people. It’s just who I am and what I do. Thank you for your understanding in this delicate matter.

Sincerely,
OpenAI

seeing whether reading the elon musk sues sam altman lawsuit would bring pain or joy, and as always I love reading the "guy sues everyone" style lawsuit because who are these precisely 100 other people listed as Does here?

Also is et seq. the rich guy etc.? and is complaint (5) just "Accounting"?

Testing GPT4 as a prompt generator for DALL-E 3. I asked to make four images at once, and it generated slight variations of the original prompt!

'Game of Thrones' creator and other authors sue ChatGPT-maker OpenAI for copyright infringement (apnews.com)

NEW YORK (AP) — John Grisham, Jodi Picoult and George R.R. Martin are among 17 authors suing OpenAI for “systematic theft on a mass scale,” the latest in a wave of legal action by writers concerned that artificial intelligence programs are using their copyrighted works without permission.

Someone on LinkedIn pointed out that doesn’t use an LLM for their support chat, but has instead opted to use some extremely limited decision tree. Which is both understandable, telling, and fucking hilarious.

OpenAI researchers warned board of AI breakthrough ahead of CEO ouster, sources say (www.reuters.com)

Ahead of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s four days in exile, several staff researchers wrote a letter to the board of directors warning of a powerful artificial intelligence discovery that they said could threaten humanity, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters....

Hach ja, nun ist es hoch offiziell, dass Reddit nun deine Daten für OpenAI sammelt. Alternativen diesbezüglich im Fediverse hatte ich schon länger her vorgeschlagen, das ist @LemmyDev und/oder @kbin, die nicht an deine kostenlosen Daten verdienen (profitieren).

»OpenAI darf Reddit-Daten nutzen:
Die beiden Unternehmen wollen eng zusammenarbeiten – und voneinander profitieren.«

More enshitification. DropBox adds to the OpenAI data vacuum all your files unless you opt out. Having the pipe is one thing. Having it be opt out and not even telling users about it makes me furious.
Dropbox spooks users by sending data to OpenAI for AI search features

OpenAI threatening to leave the EU if they pass legislation requiring them to list their data sources because:
"In addition to the possible business threat, forcing OpenAI to identify its use of copyrighted data would expose the company to potential lawsuits. Generative AI systems like ChatGPT and DALL-E are trained using large amounts of data scraped from the web, much of it copyright protected. When companies disclose these data sources it leaves them open to legal challenges."

Like every other boom tech company, it's just doing labor crimes and theft and claiming you're actually too innovative to be regulated, God.

All I want is a CDN that's also private in a way that I don't need to include any US entities on the list of sub processors. I guess bunny.net is not on the list 🔓

Sorry, ich kann es nicht anders sagen, aber unsere Kinder werden mit einer KI-Shitshow aufwachsen. Und es liegt an jedem Einzelnen von uns, diese KI-Shitshow nicht so schlimm werden zu lassen, wie ich sie mir aktuell vorstelle. 🥶

What happened to ChatGPT + browsing?

I believe that this was a feature included in my ChatGPT plus account, a week or so ago.

Today, I no longer see that as an option.

hankg, to ai

With this morning's IntelliJ update I started seeing these AI prompts. While it is exciting to see it coming to desktop software not just up running in the browser I'm still not touching these things until it goes to local only running models. Even if I trusted all these companies with all this data I'm sick of feeding evena higher precentage of our digital lives into the data lakes of the same companies or their proxies (yes I'm referring to you OpenAI).
