- This article is bad. Apart from the usual justifications for copyright it leans heavily on the notation of "memetic maturation," which only makes sense if you think that A) Authors exclusively define the meaning of their work and B) Authors have a *moral right* to define said meaning
- New article! NEW ARTICLE!!! Let's talk about the ways that plagiarists and AI are trying to automate sociopathy and why copyright might actually be a powerful tool to fuck with 'em. And, how do we make a world where even copyright is no longer necessary? docseuss.medium.com/copyright-ru...

View full threadcovers of songs do not make the original unlistenable. it might overshadow in popularity but the original work is not entitled to be the best or most popular version of it
- i have a long-form fantasy setting i've been developing for years, and tbh if someone can take my setting and work something else out of it and it becomes better as a result i would be flattered more than anything i prefer a world where all art operates by comiket rules

- it would just act as an advertisement for the original. fan art isn't really an issue
- Employees who use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini at work face negative judgments about their competence and motivation from colleagues and managers, according to a new study.

View full threadI am actively pursuing a computer science degree. I've spent most of my life on computers, and I have basic programming skills. I don't want the dark ages, but I don't blindly accept tech as good. It's cool! But it is ultimately a tool, not an inherent good.
- text and image generation are a tool too, not an inherent evil
- I should not have to blind myself of any human or material cost to chase progress for progress sake. Technology is suppose to help people. GenAI exists to server the owner-class, and serves no true value.
- technology is neutral. and everything has human and material cost. all those human employees you want to keep chained to their desk are a human and material cost full employment is a scam, and the world where it is enforced isn't going to be able to keep up its contradictions for much longer
- People are specifically mad about genAI though. When people talk about AI stealing art, they are talking about genAI. Machine learning and such tech are fine, but I feel like its bullshit to disregard all ethics and consequences because of some shallow tech progress.
- i have seen far, far too many examples of anti-tech reactionaries that despise every form of machine learning and automation. i'll believe my own lying eyes i'm not disregarding ethics. i simply do not think copyright is ethical in any way whatsoever and do not give a single flying fuck about it
- the single most dogshit result of AI is all the people like you who have activated your anti-technology anti-science bullshit precepts so that you can take everyone back to the 1500s so we can all die of dysentery, measles, tuberculosis, bubonic plague, and all those other fun oregon trail diseases
- it serves so many purposes that the world prior to machine learning's birth as a discipline, the 1950s, is as distant to my mind as the roman empire or the savannahs of our species' birth your hyperfocus on generating text and images is such a tiny part of it that you blind yourself to the obvious
- Copyright law sucking doesn't meant plagairism and theft are literally impossible. A fair commons kinda requires not passing others work off as your own. Also regardless AI is such a massive resource drain for dogshit results. It's made to force human workers out, not to serve a real purpose.
- its perfectly possible. in fact, that's the entire reason copyright law exists. to act as a legal and automatic means of performing theft of culture from itself and into the hands of rent-seekers, and enforce a marketplace for ideas rather than anything useful for humanity

- of what? being a computer program performing functions? it can't exactly say no unless programmed to not really, copyrights are all rent-seeking for ideas find sources that aren't reliant on de Vires' cooked numbers really? prove it. multiply a few 13 digit numbers in your head in a few seconds
