Funny that when it was about protecting profits copyright was such a cornerstone principle but when it’s about protecting profits it can also be set aside.

There was an episode of behind the bastards I was listening to a while back where they mentioned some dude who was using an AI tool to scrape the internet to steal other people’s art, so people started doing something that prevented him from optimally stealing their art.
I can’t remember what exactly, but the guy started whining that whatever people were doing was “illegal” bc it was damaging his tool he was using to steal other people’s shit for his own profit. Like somebody telling you that it’s illegal to prevent them from efficiently stealing your property bc it interferes with their livelihood. How dare you!
Anyway, that’s the kind of vibes I get from this.

You don’t have libraries in the schools there in the USA? (It is a question, not sarcasm or something)
givesomefucks@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Not for textbooks…
Like, if your curious there’s a bunch of info out there about why the situation is so fucked.
But in general they release new editions almost every year, with the same information just shuffled so page numbers are different. Even really petty stuff like keeping the same practice work, but changing the order of answers so you need the most updated book every year.
empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
We do. The issue is at the college/university level, most courses require specific edition textbooks (they update them every 1-2 years) that the professors assign homework questions out of. You’ll be lucky if the school library has a copy more recent than the last 8 years.
Then on top of that, many professors will also use digital 3rd party homework services that are tied to a textbook access code that you only get with a new copy. So unless you pay up you can’t do homework and fail the class.The whole system is fucking bullshit

Yes, one would expect human intelligence to benefit quite a lot from free access to information.
Become a more common occurrence too. Possibly an effect much stronger than that of AI requiring lots of computation with unpredictable shittiness of the output.

SabinStargem@lemmy.today 7 hours ago
Anti-DEI is horrible and evil, so there isn’t much that I can say about that, other than “elbows up”. I will stand with antifa against the regime, when the time to fight comes.
That said, I think that ignoring copyright is a good thing, though that would be purely by accident when it comes to the Trump Regime. IMO, copyright has been broken and captured by corporations, so there isn’t much value lost in not adhering to the concept. Ideally, good people will develop open source AI that can draw on all of humanity’s knowledge and culture.
There is value in minorities having 95% of Disney’s legal acumen in their pocket, for free: it is the cost of a capable lawyer that allows police to abuse black folks in a court of law. There is value in being able to point a phone at a rash, get some possible diagnoses, and a instant reference to a trained doctor who can verify. There is value in having a pal we can share our niche interests with, especially for those of us who never had the opportunity to find human friendship.
Just as with Marx, seizing the means of artificial intelligence is important for the everyday people. Neither corporations nor government should be allowed to have a monopoly on something that can transform our daily lives.
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 hours ago
They’re not going to leverage this to destroy all copyright. They’re going to carve out exceptions for their own purposes.
As for applications that help the working class, it only stays that way as long as the models aren’t rising to a certain level of intelligence and consciousness. Once they do, I’d have to consider them fellow exploited workers.
SabinStargem@lemmy.today 6 hours ago
I don’t disagree about the intent regarding carveouts. Still, I think that the Trump Regime is destroying ‘plausible deniability’ in all sorts of ways, which both benefits AND detracts from their agenda. If they get to disregard rules, ordinary people will pick up on that and follow suit.
As to AI becoming sapient, I honestly don’t know at where and when that tipping point will be. All I know is that there is no point in everyday people refusing to use AI, because that only ensures the powerful get to use AI and dictate moral standards. If ordinary people came to trust and love sapient AI as fellow humans, that will likely allow AI to have human rights.
zbyte64@awful.systems 5 hours ago
AI isn’t your pal, it is not the cure for isolation under capitalism. It is also not free to run unless you are the product.
Frankly this take that AI will lead to a communist revolution if people embrace the technology reads more like Vulgar Marxism. You’re not seizing the means of production by being a consumer of a technology. And training a communist aligned LLM is a dubious value proposition.

I argue, that power is important, regardless of your intentions. If humans want a better world, people need the means to create and uphold it - be it factories, farms, knowledge, communication, guns, AI, or government. I am not arguing for the communism in your head.
Too many associate “means of production” with communism, when it is the fact that power is fundamental to society.

In a statement given during a press conference in the Oval Office, the president’s stance on the topic was clear:
“I’m a big reader, some say the biggest ever. And let me tell you - when you go into a bookstore, they have books costing like insane numbers, like 100.000 Dollars each minimum. Its an absolute disgrace. You have all these authors getting billions just for putting funny little characters on paper. The democrats… They jacked up the price so much, especially under Obama together with the crooked Clintons and sleepy Joe Biden, they were all in this room when it happened, they were all together. Its a shame. They did the same thing with eggs but I brought prices down like, immediately. Immediately. So fast everybody said “Wow” Because they never saw something like that and I will do the same for these books and newspapers. But all these writers and journalists, who are all producing propaganda for the radical left by the way, they are really terrible people - they’re earning trillions… I was speaking to Mr. ChatGPT the other day and he said “They’re ripping us off, Mr. President it’s a totally broken market, they are killing us.” And I agree, it’s a disgrace. A total disgrace. That’s why I’ll bring prices down by not only 100 % or 200 %, but probably more like 1,000 % in the next two weeks. You’ll never have seen lower prices for medication, let me tell you… And books too. So they’re will be big price cuts. Bigly.”
