I don’t like corporations using the data I put online to train their AI either. I’d happily give it to people to train a FOSS AI tho. I’ve also contributed my voice to Mozillas Common Voice project, which is an open dataset that everyone is allowed to use. If it’s something that everyone can use and benefit from equally, I’m happy to help. I’m not happy to help some corporation make even more profits tho. At least not without getting payed.
Comment on OpenAI Wants to Eat Google Search's Lunch

OpenAI wants to eat everyone’s lunch. They don’t even respect robots.txt.
I’m gonna be real, I don’t think an AI company stealing every bit of data I ever put online to ingest into their AI so they can use it to make money really falls under “fair use.”
If it were individuals, who were doing it for shits and giggles, and not to make a profit, I’d have a different view. Because I kind of don’t care if you’re just some random asshat making an art project and aren’t using it to try make beaucoup bucks on the back of the whole planets intellectual labor.
Fair Use should be for humans not corporations. Fuck this “corporations are people too” schtick, they aren’t.

This is all exactly* what I’ve been thinking, and better parsed too. If “we” don’t guide AI with the law now, we’re screwed.

It’s not even that the lawmakers are capitalists, it’s that they are ancient, and have no clue about this. There are sitting congresspeople who proudly say they’ve never sent an email.

I strongly doubt legislators are innocent old men, just caught off guard by tech, even if some might. They know what it is and are trying to figure out how to control it.
And the lawmakers don’t even need to be capitalists themselves (even though they mostly are), they just need to be in their pockets. Its not a coincidence their legislation is almost always beneficial to corporations one way or the other.
Hell, in the US lobbying is legal, its not even a secret.

I agree.
