@zzt MIT AI lab fuckboy is not going to lead us into the future

@charlotte @ug @Flaky and just btw intellectual "property" is directly a function of the ability to reassign rights away from the creator. if you can't transfer it then it's not property. getting played by capitalists calling a human right "property" and letting them define your terms is basic bitch behavior. bodily autonomy is a human right even if the matrix wants to use your body for energy

@charlotte @ug @Flaky the reason i keep mentioning it in the context of LLMs is because the LLMs directly marketing their usage as a replacement of the original work they consume for training is the exact reason they are (1) widely considered to be "evil" (2) emphatically infringing and not covered by fair use. i literally do not care about someone using a transformer model as a slower and worse search engine because they don't want to learn about indexing and compression, except that the models not citing their sources directly replaces the originals

@charlotte @ug @Flaky a corporation which did not produce the labor cannot receive the protections assigned to labor, and moreover the concept of paying for the copyright or patent actually removes a human right assigned to the laborer, which i believe is facially contradictory to any system of human rights. i will absolutely die before i get anyone else to agree on this because as we all agree the colonialist slaver legal system of the US is fucked and working as designed to stimy human rights

@charlotte @ug @Flaky furthermore i see it as a fundamental failure that a patent or copyright can be transferred from the creator, and that's not actually at all part of the original conception of copyright either. it is also absolutely something that can be legislated, and banning it is quite literally a component of my insane software license nobody will use. i don't think i disagree with your analysis until you raise the spectre of "as designed". i think that's nihilist is all

do NOT form an opinion of a project's slop rating without seeing the receipts yourself btw. we cannot let them use this to claim people are slopping when they're not https://possum.city/notes/asa6lct0chm3021i
