If you fast for about 2 or 3 months most people will lose 100% of their body weight within the next couple of decades.

Anyone feeding their own work in is covered, people can easily contribute their own work to a specific AI, and the general use models that scraped the entire internet then started poisoning everything with garbage immediately die. This would mean that the only people who get to use, license and sell good AI are massive IP rights holders (like they are already doing with Adobe and Getty, maybe large book publishers could get in on it too). That is a literal nightmare scenario for anyone who is not one of those giant corporations and a huge win for predatory capitalism. e: There's also a significant risk that such legislation would make currently legal non-ai forms of media use in production illegal for anyone who is not, again, one of the giant rights holders. It would work great in a world of perfectly spherical artists where every human has exclusive non-transferrable rights to anything he contributes to. Sadly, that is very much emphatically not the world we live in, or anywhere close to it. Private Speech fucked around with this message at 03:20 on Jan 29, 2024 |

I imagine they just sue you for breach of contract if they can prove you lied (but probably only if they had to pay out on a policy).

There’s some technical problems: - you can’t prove something has been included in the model - you can just add it again - you can’t remove something from the model - you can’t prove something hasn’t been included

Private Speech posted:This would mean that the only people who get to use, license and sell good AI are massive IP rights holders (like they are already doing with Adobe and Getty, maybe large book publishers could get in on it too). I'm not sure what you mean here. Large companies are already the only entities who can afford to hold onto and curate a large body of work because that poo poo is time-consuming and expensive, and it only becomes more so if you throw it all into an AI model. There are no small-time creatives spinning up their own limitless dream machine and they never will, as GenAI is an inherently intensive and resource-heavy process. It's a bad thing that big corporations own a ton of IPs, but that's already the case and isn't going to be made worse if you prevent them from further helping themselves to everyone else's stuff that they DON'T own and obscuring it in AI datasets. Reading the words "make it a legal requirement for anything fed into an AI to have permission and attribution" and concluding that this is actually good for big corporations is absolutely wild. And if your point is that smaller creatives would also benefit by having their own theft machine, AI bros already tried that line of reasoning and were roundly told to gently caress off by everyone. And what do you mean when you mention "exclusive non-transferrable rights"? If people make something for someone else then they can give that person the right to use or own it as defined by their contract, and that person can then throw it in an AI if they want. That's always been the case. The artist can also keep the rights to their own work even if based on someone else's property and the rights holders to that property don't get to use it for their own purposes even if it falls outside of fair use legislation, they just have to request a DMCA takedown. AI doesn't change any of this, the whole point of the current lawsuits in America are literally to prove that current models are breaking the law. Mass corporate ownership of IPs is a separate problem to that, or at least a different layer of problem.

The companies most likely to do that are the large IP holders, they would also likely sell access to such models to other companies or individuals if they had a legal monopoly. The content creators will not get anything out of that.

When you know a little about copyright: gently caress copyright When you know a moderate amount about copyright: Well this protects me from exploitation by large rights hoarders and also there are many historical instances such as the battle of the booksellers that have demonstrated the necessity of a moderate copyrighting system and also there are several high profile cases where the little guy has managed to defend their intellectual property against corporate giants so When you know a lot about copyright: gently caress copyright

The pouches are less likely to give you oral cancer than smoking (or bizarrely, and probably a methodology issue, not smoking), but there is a link with pancreatic cancer and afaik nobody is sure why.

There's a difference between old tabacco pouches and these new Zyn style stuff - I think because one is all the poo poo that comes with a cigarette and the zyn is just a bag of nicotene salt so chances of cancers are probably lower with the new ones. Stiil, people forget how bad Nicotine is for your gums, and more importantly your blood pressure. Believe me I know!

I agree that none are exactly a health food, but yeah jury is still out whether it is something in the rest of the plant that increases pancreatic cancer risk, or whether jamming nicotine into your bloodstream alone also makes your pancreas sad.
