Has anyone else noticed that the same people who are criticizing generative AI for "stealing" people's intellectual property are the same people who were claiming that copyright is an outdated concept, years ago?

You can't have it both ways.

@georgia @Alex He co-founded Reddit. He deserved everything that happened to him.

@xianc78 I think you very much can have it both ways.

These companies are very blatantly stealing stuff to train their AI on.

With the current copyright system it should get them in trouble or at least given a warning at the very least.

Everyone knows that the reason they're not is just because they're a large corporation and they can do whatever they want.

However everyone believed that the current copyright system is bad and should honestly be removed but as of this time when it's still in place these companies should be held accountable.

@Mr_NutterButter @xianc78 yeah, just because you want a system gone, doesn't mean it's okay for someone to abuse the system that's there. That leaves you in the dust as the little guy.

@Mr_NutterButter @xianc78 because they can use your material all they want, but once someone uses their material it's illegal all of the sudden

@beardalaxy @Mr_NutterButter Except that it isn't just the corporations using AI. Anyone can use it.
