On the side of content creators, this means no published written work is safe, meaning if one doesn’t want to contribute to LLMs or have their art plagiarised in some way, they can’t submit it anywhere that the public will easily find it. The best option now is sites that have the latest AI scrape/robot defense, for everything produced or shared digitally.

A life on the seas is criminal, yes, but not wrong. Criminal simply means ‘against the interests of the state’. And the state is shit.

Because turning books into a language model is transformative. No LLM is a substitute for the original works.

Non sequitur, no matter who would have won such a case, the winner would have turned out with more money?

I am generally sympathetic to making copyright weaker and less restrictive, so I consider this a good thing even while not being very interested in or enthusiastic about AI.
