Exactly my point. They say they don't want steak due to legal concerns rather than just admitting they're vegans.

This has to be the first time I've seen a graph with an inverted scale.

Let's hope judges are reasonable because if AIs aren't allowed to learn like humans do, we'll never get AGI.

> were found to be derivative works of their training set, it would follow almost directly that their output is also a derivative work I doubt so. Let's say Harry Potter is in the …

Reminds me those Bitcoin threads where I would explain a use case it solved for me and everyone was like "nope that's impossible, there's no use case". And before the inevitable re…

Actually, when you translate Chinese literally word for word, it sounds a lot like caveman English. 你不去，我也不去 You no go, I also no go 今天这里人很多 Today here person very many 下雨就不去 Fall …

My understanding is that "one shotting" a C compiler from a single prompt would not be covered by copyright, but a large project like GCC containing thousands of individual contrib…

Would be cool to have models trained on specific eras of design, a bit like that LLM which was exclusively trained on pre-1931 text.

I was referring to this decision: "To summarize the analysis that now follows, the use of the books at issue to train Claude and its precursors was exceedingly transformative and w…

Yes, they do. > Specifically, if a third party sues a commercial customer for copyright infringement for using Microsoft’s Copilots or the output they generate, we will defend the …

Courts have already set a precedent on this (it's fair use) and even if these decisions were overturned, the liability would fall on the LLM creators for the initial training, not …

Anthropic and co basically have the opposite policy (for paid users): if you get sued for copyright infringement, they will indemnify you. That means they're confident it's not an …

Yes, that's what I meant. It's harder to use the copyright excuse for those use cases.

That's just not an issue in practice. All major AI labs match generated code against their training data to prevent outputting verbatim copies. They're so confident they won't outp…

I think they meant it as "indistinguishable from a human contribution".

No, it's far-fetched to believe GCC would get sued for incorporating LLM-generated code.

At the same time, they would be somewhat forced to concede those use cases if they wanted to stick to the copyright story. Maybe you're right but I remain skeptical.
