The New York Times is suing OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringemen
A lawsuit claims OpenAI copied millions of Times’ articles to train the language models that power ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot.
As outlined in the lawsuit, the Times alleges OpenAI and Microsoft’s large language models (LLMs), which power ChatGPT and Copilot, “can generate output that recites Times content verbatim, closely summarizes it, and mimics its expressive style.” This “undermine[s] and damage[s]” the Times’ relationship with readers, the outlet alleges, while also depriving it of “subscription, licensing, advertising, and affiliate revenue.”

Apple’s iPhone Design Chief Enlisted by Jony Ive, Sam Altman to Work on AI Devices
-Design executive Tang Tan is set to leave Apple in February
-Tan will join Ive’s LoveFrom design studio, work on AI projecthttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/a…
Interesting...here come shiny, over-priced gadgets that are smarter than we are.
- I honestly think Tang Tan leaving might have more to do with the Apple Watch Masimo Lawsuit... As for Jony he's gotta have FU moneyjonny_quest_lives
- if you are in the market for a $60k turntable Jony's got you covered: https://www.linn.co.…jonny_quest_lives

- ...why automatic statistics gets so many designer enthusiasm up is embarrasing... must be their narrow understanding of design anyhow...neverscared
- we should all be on strike like the actors-resses have been... but i guess not...neverscared
- Who will they be replaced by?
Netflix movies are already generic and boring as fuck. Human beings still make the process better.PhanLo - I still can't imagine a non-creative prompting away to get the story boards.PhanLo
- I really enjoy using AI, but it's quite limited, even after all the developments in the last year.PhanLo
- Let’s hope. But dont forget the talentless fucks at the top of every company are driven by one thing only- money. I was told a story about a super successful_niko
- Entrepreneur who made billions building up and selling companies, a friend of mine was working for him and daily he would hear “ I can’t wait to replace all you_niko
- Dumb fucks with ai” and my friend was in the business development side of things. No one is safe. Nobody gives a shit about you and your creativity, you’re just_niko
- A necessary expense at the moment, if they can get half the results at a tenth of the price they’ll do it. Be the boss. Figure out how to replace yourself with_niko
- Ai and just hustle clients or create a product or software. It’s the only way forward, learn to thrive with ai or perish._niko
- I think people are extrapolating from "AI outputs cool-looking image" to "and then the AI will become superintelligent and I can fire everyone and just enter ayuekit
- prompt." In reality this would probably require hiring more people just to get the AI to work properly, cover the edge cases and paper over things it can't do.yuekit
- I’d agree with you and want to if the rate of change and improvement wasn’t so blindingly rapid, every day there are new tools out there to make it easier_niko
- With storyboarding for instance maintaining consistent characters and style would be a challenge. You also still can't render text reliably.yuekit
- no but your base image/comp and art direction gets closer to actual execution. less confusion for client, imo.doesnotexist

ok, I've now read the full NYT complaint filed this morning vs OpenAI and Microsoft. I'm impressed - it's future-focused around fair value for work vital to democracy. It also contains 220k pages of exhibits although the pages of Ex J stood out to me.
- it reads like they're going for a settlement though, or is there an expectation of some sort of legislation? punitive measures?kingsteven
- trained AI-s can't have a monetary value.sted
- ^ because in the US 'transformative use' is interpreted based on precedent set by google search, which relies on linking back to the sources. EU has actual lawskingsteven
- around scraping and storing information, the in US it seems these cases rely on arguing they're out of line with the legal precedentkingsteven
- it would seem that the law on transformative-use which enables scraping datasets (and having no 'monetary value') is so interwoven with previous IP lawkingsteven
- that it couldn't be changed without overturning a century's worth of arcane IP rulings. but they can still argue that they're out of line with the current lawkingsteven
- i can totally imagine this will lead to a settlement or a ruling which appears punitive but actually somehow validates OpenAI's business model furtherkingsteven
- and both legal teams are currently using GPT-4 to prepare their cases.kingsteven
- If OpenAI does collapse, WeWork style, it will likely be seen as a tale of hubris.
They knew infringement was going to be a major issue.They proceeded anywayneverscared - That will not play well in front of juries.
In the end it could devour them.neverscared - and everyone else reading about it from the NYT on archive.is rather than feeding one line in to GPT and waiting for it to plagiarise.kingsteven
- copyright is not abolished...neverscared
- the scale of openAI is too huge, if it was to 'fail' it would be a stunt by microsoft to aquire and further commoditise the tech. MS could have bought NYTkingsteven
- twice for the investment they've put in to OpenAI. Considering the US gov't push to stay at the forefront of AI tech and the billions invested in AI startups...kingsteven
- i just don't think anything will come from it other than a headline grabbing '500m settlement' and a slap on the wrist.kingsteven

Cory Doctorow: What Kind of Bubble is AI?
Of course AI is a bubble. It has all the hallmarks of a classic tech bubble. Pick up a rental car at SFO and drive in either direction on the 101 – north to San Francisco, south to Palo Alto – and every single billboard is advertising some kind of AI company. Every business plan has the word “AI” in it, even if the business itself has no AI in it. Even as two major, terrifying wars rage around the world, every newspaper has an above-the-fold AI headline and half the stories on Google News as I write this are about AI. I’ve had to make rule for my events: The first person to mention AI owes everyone else a drink.
It’s a bubble.
Tech bubbles come in two varieties: The ones that leave something behind, and the ones that leave nothing behind. Sometimes, it can be hard to guess what kind of bubble you’re living through until it pops and you find out the hard way.
- A bubble, but it's also already making $$$. The difference between Meta and the dotcom era was they learned they had to make money to be viable.formed
- So companies like MSFT, GOOG, etc., are going to make billions from it, as will AI.com, Salesforce, etc.
As long as you aren't completely gambling it isformed - a real part of tech and the future. It's already been proven to make $$.
Look at NVDA, solid investment making butt loads from AI.formed - true... def. will be a big part of the future.. for automated statistics its quite overhyped...neverscared
- it seems to me though al lot of people think its the only true future .. and thats as pathetic as it gets.neverscared

“A.I. could help you write 100 books in a year!” they say. My question is always: Will A.I. produce 100 times as many readers?

- oh really? fuck off.sted
- that's basically admitting that they build a for profit business based on stolen data.
every single person whose ip was used can sue themsted - "Sue everybody" - Brett Weirutopian
- evidently they should have waited t till the copyright laws are changed so that they can train their models... and not steal it all beforehand... fatalneverscared
- and idiotic risk they took... lets hope they pay the proper price for it not being patient enuff and raid the scene like criminals..neverscared

- It’s almost as if they’re gonna have to come up with a business plan, approaching content creators, publishers to license content first, crazy pffftprophetone
- I love how they frame it as saving OpenAI is saving ai itself, no dudes you’ve been labouring under a strategy that you will simply get your wayprophetone

- i like chat-gpt but i mostly use it for SQL, Excel and Regular Expressions. i'm not sure why it's expected to write novels and draw pictures...kingsteven
- ... because it can.palimpsest
- it can also plagiarism check, more a comment about the irrelevancy of the lords question and response... the things it does well fall under transformative usekingsteven
- or 'the things no one complains about' of course banning scraping is going to fuck AI research. the NYT case is about open AIs breach of established law.kingsteven
- which would be fine if plagiarism wasn't their business model. surely all they have to do is link to their sources and its technically transformative, in thekingsteven
- same way as the law protects search, and within the capabilities of the AIkingsteven
- how do you expect ai to be anything without being trained on copyright?doesnotexist

Popular drawing tablet manufacturer Wacom is the latest target being slammed by the digital art community after appearing to use AI-generated images in ads. Over the weekend, creatives across X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok noticed that Wacom was promoting its Intuos pen tablet with a dragon illustration that showed telltale marks of AI-generated images — such as questionable scale designs and fur blending unnaturally into other sections of the image.
Artists are making creative companies apologize for using AI
- Kinda ironic that Wacom sells drawing tablets and then they utilise prompts for their ads.NBQ00
