It isn’t. I’d even say that simply completing puzzles is far from AGI, even if the puzzles are complex.

I was at a family gathering and my grandfather was in the middle of something. He asked for my help and turns out “Apple support” on the phone was trying to get him to pay some overdue bills with giftcards.

I joked around a bit with the guy and he started to threaten me, ha.

I’m mostly talking about being able to train on copyrighted content. This is on me though, I got mixed up. That’s what I meant in my first comment.

If you think someone can train a model on legally obtained data (Google images, YouTube, internet archive), then that is fair.

Personally, I think using pirated or at least bought content that is ripped (Netflix, DVDs) should be exempt (for everyone obviously, not just OpenAI.) Some data is already behind huge mega corps like record labels, Hollywood, publishing houses, etc. OpenAI can afford the cost but the little guys will be screwed when it comes to SOTA.

It’s also worth noting that most current lawsuits are aimed at how the data is used and not how it’s sourced if I’m not mistaken. The laws coming from these lawsuits won’t be used to bolster anti-piracy laws but copyright laws instead, targeting fair use and transformative clauses imo.

It’s sadly already happening in regards to stack.

Mostly youtube, reddit and image search. I guess I could just record a Netflix stream if I needed the whole movie. I guess recording a Netflix stream is pirating? Probably easier with a torrent.

What does it matters? I don’t think pirating is unethical especially when it’s not even redistribution but transformative. Openai has never stopped me from pirating or even asked me to stop. Not sure what you mean with “no one else”.

You ever ask yourself if the memes made from movie scenes used pirated media?

What pirate bay is doing isn’t exactly transformative. I pirate most of my media and can’t say I’m not for better copyright laws and a better treatment of pirate bay, I just think the situations are different.

I don’t think saying “if pirate bay is illegal, so should training ai without compensations” is exactly fair. (I wish the actual people contributing could be compensated, but how it’s set up, we would be giving a few companies a monopoly while compensating mostly data aggregators.)

Reforms don’t have to be pro-corporate slop.

Sadly, the media and most of the population is practically begging for it. When you couple that with the pressure exerted by record companies, publishing houses, etc, it is clear those are the reforms we get if any.

I show her my card collection.

In our current society, little people can get away with it. I can take whatever style I want and train a model on it. There’s already many ghibli ressources in the open source scene, and a lot of them date from 2 years ago.

This whole situation is rage bait to manipulate the population into cheering for new copyright laws so politicians get little push back when they start writing pro-corporate laws regarding AI.

I understand the sentiment but I think it’s foolhardy.

• The job losses still occur
• The handful of companies able to pay for the data have a defecto monopoly (Google, OpenAI)
• That monopoly is used to keep the price tag of state of the art AI tools above consumer levels (your boss can afford to replace you but you can’t afford to compete against him with the same tools).

And all that mostly benefiting the data holders and big ai companies. Most image data is on platforms like Getty, Deviant Art, Instagram, etc. It’s even worse for music and lit, where three record labels and five publishers own most of it.

If we don’t get a proper music model before the lawsuits pass, we will never be able to generate music without being told what is or isn’t okay to write about.

I think it will be punished, but not how we hope. The laws will end up rewarding the big data holders (Getty, record labels, publishers) while locking out open source tools. The paywalls will stay and grow. It’ll just formalize a monopoly.

It shouldn’t be much of a problem using a gibli based model with img2img. I personally use forge as my main ui, models can be found on civitai.com . It’s easily possible, you just need a bit of vram and setting it up is more work. You might get more mileage by using controlnet in conjunction with img2img.

It is scary the amount of people in this thread that actually think art is defined by how it is made, and not the emotions and thoughts it elicits.

The urls aren’t important, it’s the name, photo and location he is spamming. He wants this girl to be harassed.

Thanks for the break down. I’ve seen Jordan criticize Israel multiple times, he’s never once defended them as far as I’m concerned. It does indeed seem like baseless malicious accusations.

Harassment campaign being built up most likely.

Same can’t be said for the snacks though. Highway robbery, I tell ya.

The Hollywood business model is coming to an end.

Can you guys give details? I’m kind of curious about who you are talking about and what’s the propaganda. It’s better to be on the lookout for it in any case.

“X”, I only need to tap it three times to get what I want.

AI has a vibrant open source scene and is definitely not owned by a few people.

A lot of the data to train it is only owned by a few people though. It is record companies and publishing houses winning their lawsuits that will lead to dystopia. It’s a shame to see so many actually cheering them on.
