AI companies have all kinds of arguments against paying for copyrighted content::The companies building generative AI tools like ChatGPT say updated copyright laws could interfere with their ability to train capable AI models. Here are comments from OpenAI, StabilityAI, Meta, Google, Microsoft and more.
This thread is interesting reading. Normally, people here complain about capitalism left and right. But when an actual policy choice comes up, the opinions become firmly pro-capitalist. I wonder how that works.
Everyone’s always up for changing things until it comes to making the actual sacrifices necessary to enact the changes
That’s the thing. I don’t see how there is sacrifice involved in this. I would guess that the average user here has personally more to lose than to gain from expanded copyrights.
Human beings are funny characters. They only care when it starts to affect them personally otherwise they say all kinda shit.
