Comment on "Did you realize that we live in a reality where SciHub is illegal, and OpenAI is not?"
givesomefucks@lemmy.world 8 months agoIf I draw a perfect clone of Donald Duck in the privacy of my home after looking at hundreds of Donald Duck images online, there is nothing wrong with that
In your picture example it would be an exact copy…
But even if you started a business and when people asked for a picture of Donald Duck, giving them a traced copy is still copyright infringement…
The worst thing about these chatbots is the people who think it’s amazing don’t understand what it’s doing. If you understood it, it wouldn’t be impressive.

You are missing his point. Is Disney going after the one who is selling the copy online, or are they going after Adobe?

In that analogy, openai is the one selling it, because their the ones using it to prop up their product.
I didn’t think I needed to explicitly state that, but well, here we are.
Have a nice life tho

Some of us have to work for a living, I can’t reply to every comment the moment it comes in and it seems rude to break the chaine.
In his analogy, openais product was the tool. You can do the same with both img gen and Photoshop, and neither of these prop up their product by implying it’s easy to copyright infringe. That’s why I said you were missing his point but you do you buddy.

That guy is total loss, a tragic clown as i am not sure if i should cry or laugh about them. I am not sure what businesses they had in this argument at all except pissing off people who are better informed.
I’ve only just saw the comment where he seemed to suggest that the final trained model contains all trained materials in full… and that combined with not once but multiple times pretending they know all about llm’s that foss ai doesnt exist and we all dont know how any of his work tech works… i seriously have to restrain myself to leave that gross misconception as it is as i don’t want them to respond. I hope the down-votes do their job.
I am sorry to vent, kinda just had to :)
