A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

This is not the final word on the subject. This is just a court's ruling. Somebody will appeal it.

And it ruled it's okay to train your AI with books under two circumstances. You paid for the book and the so-called AI doesn't imitate the authors' voices. They didn't initially pay for the books so they have another trial to figure out a penalty for that.

And I personally don't buy the no imitation thing. You can make a model that does nothing else but create sloshfic. I think that's what the plaintiffs' lawyers will appeal the decision about.
