    @Pika @flop_leash_973 This is largely my thoughts on the whole thing, the process of actually training the AI is no different from a human learning

    The thing about that, is that there’s likely enough precedent in copyright law to actually handle that, with most copyright law it’s all about intent and scale and I think that’s likely where this will all go

    Here the intent is to replace and the scale is astronomical, whereas an individual’s intent is to add and the scale is minimal

      Hello fellow human. I also learn by having information shoveled to me without regard to my agency.

        @zbyte64 with everything you see you are scraping data from your environment whether you want to or not

        How does a child learn what pain is? How does a teenager learn what heartbreak is? It’s certainly not because they made the decision to find that out themselves

          I bring up agency and I get an exemplary response what I mean.

          Raising a child well requires someone who is able to engage in the child’s own theory of mind. If you just treat a child as an information sponge they will need more therapy than usual. A good parent takes interest in their child’s ability to exercise agency.

              Then I guess my original point of agency being an essential element in human learning had nothing to do with your conversation about how AI learns like humans. Carry on.

                    @zbyte64 from what I understand, you’re referring to the process at scale—the amount of information the AI can take in is inhuman—which I’m not disagreeing with

                    None of which is relevant to my original point: the scale of their operations, which has already been used countless times in copyright law

                    The scale at which they operate and their intention to profit is the basis for their infringement, how they’re doing it would be largely irrelevant in a copyright case, is my point
