The judge in that case ruled the training wasn’t fair use for pirated books, which left them on the hook for potentially all revenue (likely a court determined percentage) that the model generated for them in addition to statutory damages. That is well north of 1.5 billion.
The model doesn’t stream out anyone’s content though. The article mentions that the plaintiffs have provided no examples of a prompt that creates anything substantial.
Streaming a lossy compression would generally be infringement, but there is definitely a point where it becomes not infringement if it’s lossy enough.
What a model generally stores, is factual information that isn’t copyright in the first place. It’s storing word counts, sentence lengths, sentiment analysis, and so on.
Arguing that training models isn’t fair use us going to be a massive uphill battle, it’s basically reading the book but with a computer. It’s not actually a big deal to people, unless you hold the copyright to a ton of works and want to get a percentage of all the AI income these companies have made.
Torrenting the books is likely absolutely copyright infringement, but that has relatively low payout compared to the money these companies are getting for their models. The training being fair use means that rights holders can’t try to take any money from the model’s use. The statutory limits for infringement even at per work levels aren’t significant compared to the legal cost of proving it happened.
Even then the legal requirement is about working in the companies interest, not strictly get more profit. It’s become shorthand to just say profit, because it’s a simple thing to point at.
He wants access to massive user bases for fortnite without having to pay anything to the platforms. That’s why he’s so intent on attacking Steam, Apple and Google. Steam would be a massive increase in revenue even with a 30% cut going to steam for epic, but mutual benefit isn’t in vogue at the moment.
Companies don’t stop hiring, at least in tech. They can force out more expensive talent and hire in cheaper areas or get more junior talent. You could very well interview your potential replacement.
Texting on my old stratosphere was so much better than the modern keyboards. I wouldn’t mind an updated version.
AI chat bots are actually a useful workaround for shitty web uis now. When you don’t know which icon is hiding the thing you want, you can just ask the AI to do it for you.
If anything it’s probably incentive to lie about AI usage. They got more publicity for being snubbed than winning.
I doubt it really has accurate answers if the example they released is not enough digital advertising.
The real answer is pretty simple. Not having a primary was a bad choice, Biden clearly wasn’t capable of being in public for prolonged periods.
I think the initial goal of top level domains having any real meaning is dead.
There’s levels to it. True quality isn’t worth it, absolute garbage costs a lot though. Some level that mostly works is the sweet spot.
A large part is fear of rejection and you are paying for an AI girlfriend anyway, it gets pretty blurry.
Is it? Prostitution has existed since forever. Women as property is still a cultural norm in some countries that exist today. We are within living memory of marital rape becoming a crime in the US.
US education problems aren’t funding related, at least on the education itself. The US has focused almost exclusively on raising the floor of education since no child left behind, which has been an absolute failure. It’s gotten to the point now that some districts are removing gifted classes because it’s viewed as not fair to the lower achieving students.
Funding also is largely irrelevant to student performance, beyond a floor level. The biggest problem is parent apathy, which isn’t solved with money. Other problems like food insecurity and lack of housing are problems that aren’t education funding related. A free lunch can help a kid pay attention in class, but it’s not going to solve home life or not doing homework.
Pretty sure her tweet said that. Taking away iron dome missile and still giving them offensive weapons doesn’t help anyone.
I wish there was one that didn’t require nearly every phone permission all the time.
Lots of breaches are entirely preventable, but lots of companies don’t like to pay for qualified employees that could prevent them.
If you are agreeing, you are part of the problem. This was essentially a bill to defund the police by taking body cameras away.
It’s tempered glass, so it doesn’t need the support. It also means that it’s designed to shatter in a way that prevents sharp edges. That robot has a lot more power than a human when it hits the glass. Tempered glass does weaken after repeated strong impacts, so that could potentially be part of it as well.
