• Nick Clegg, former Meta executive and UK Deputy Prime Minister, has reiterated a familiar line when it comes to AI and artist consent.
  • He said that any push for consent would “basically kill” the AI industry.
  • Clegg added that the sheer volume of data that AI is trained on makes it “implausible” to ask for consent.

    If I ran the zoo, then any AI that trained on intellectual property as if it were public domain would automatically become public domain itself.

    If your industry can’t exist without theft then your industry doesn’t deserve to exist, pretty simple.

    I have a proposition. Raid them with police and search their computers for stolen data like you would do with your citizens.

      My thought exactly. If consent isn’t needed, what other actions do they deem justified without consent?

      This is not a IP-issue, this is about human rights.

    If a business cannot survive without breaking the law, then it is not a business but a criminal organisation.

    oh noes

    Look, these goddamn assholes have got in their head that they have a right to profit.

    NOBODY HAS A RIGHT TO PROFIT.

    You have a right to try to create a profit and there are rules to that. You’re gonna lose your billions in investment if you can’t plaigerize content?..fuck you, your loss, and you shoulda fucking known better when the idea was presented to you.

    Assholes

    Same thing for most of billionaires’ income sources.

    “Respecting [insert human right] would kill [insert industry].”

    correction: will kill people’s attempts to make billions out of other people’s art. Otherwise inquisitive people will continue to do non-profit research this way or another.

    Actually here is a question to you: Would you be ok if the law stated you don’t need permission if it is non-profit and open source? Yea I thought so bitch.
