Comment on Terraforming Mars Publisher Calls AI "Too Powerful" Not to Use

  Legal does not necessarily equate to ethical.

  Of course not. But "ethical" is a matter of subjective debate. You say X is unethical, I say X is ethical, and ultimately there's no way to tell who's "right."

  Law's different, the whole point of it is to have a system that sorts these things out.

  And the law will eventually change (I think) to mitigate some of these shortcomings that AI training has highlighted.

  So it's not currently illegal to train AIs like this? That's been my point this whole time. It's a different thing from the things that are currently illegal (such as "theft").

      Unethical according to your personal opinion. My opinion on the ethics of the matter differ, and that's just as valid as yours. You don't get to declare "that's unethical" and then expect everyone to just fall in line with your belief. Way back at the root of this you said:

      But it’s clear a lot of people don’t understand why using data without consent is a bad thing in this context,

      Which, as I argued back then, suggests that you think that the notion that "using data without consent" is a bad thing that people who disagree with you just don't understand. No, they understand perfectly well. They just disagree with you.

        Can you explicate why you believe it is ethical to use data without consent of the data creator?
