Everything in AI is built on copyright infringement, so redistributing Blizzard assets while slapping an MIT license on everything is par for the course.

It has been 24 years since release, in any place that isn't completely captured by big capital interests it would be fair use. This is such a forced reach. There are plenty of good arguments to be made re: big LLM providers and copyright, yet you're weakening all of them by choosing the worst example.

The Beatles released "She Loves You" much more than 24 years ago. You don't get to redistribute their music however you want. Me pointing out that AI bros disregard basic common sense and the law as part of pursuing their objectives doesn't weaken anything, it reinforces how they should be held accountable.

I was kinda watching it unfold on X, I think this user was a couple days before https://x.com/delba_oliveira/status/2020515010985005255?s=46 and simpler/less-invasive instructions

Also, I'd love to use these sound effects, but I am an rts player and love aoe and wc franchise, these noises just trigger me to want to play too much.

Also, also, if you haven't seen AgentCraft, you are missing out -> https://x.com/idosal1/status/2021661861163544818 (worked in one npx command for me using my claude, a+ for creativity and smoothness)

This just doesn't engage with what I said, being that this is only true because the law has been captured by big capital interests, to the detriment of society. "But it's the law!!" adds nothing - my comment already implies awareness of it being the law.

The idea that using these 24-year old WC3 peon sounds in an open source github project makes one an "AI bro" or even connecting it to AI in general is laughable. There have been thousands of projects on github including this kind of thing long, long before LLMs.

Your anger about big AI and copyright is valid! But it's completely overflowing your common sense, targeting the wrong things indiscriminately. Learn to channel it.

Copyright is what it is, the guy is distributing wav files which I guess are the original ones. It is done in blatant disregard for copyright so the argument is solid. Just because you have another view does not mean we have to accept that view.

There are few people who seriously recommend less than 25-years of protection.
