it generates all content similar enough to infringe copyright lmao
Yes that would be the danger of precedent should the case ultimately be decided in GRRM’s favor. The winners of the AI bubble are going to be authors, it turns out, receiving whatever assets aren’t physically burnt to power the stupid lying machines in settlements and copyright infringement awards whenever the idiots do try to fight it.
with the investment bubble how it is and the U.S. economy how it is I don’t think there will be any winners from the collapse except for the Chinese really
not that I’m saying “don’t pop it” just like haha
i live here. We bought a house a year ago and money is increasingly stressful. If my partner loses her job, that’s it for the house, I can’t keep up with it on my own. And shit, they might get rid of me if they have to “tighten the budget” since I just serve vegan food for lunch. I tell myself I’ll always have a job because kids will always be going to college but that isn’t a fuckin’ guarantee. I’m just in constant doomer mode so that at least I expect the hell we live inA lot of us are in the same boat. Sad we can all see the writing on the wall with whatever awful crash is coming.
I feel you, the Russia-Ukraine War already cost me my first job and now the AI bubble will likely cost me my second.
But financial stability was always a fiction not a fact for me. The more important thing is that it will produce a large source of revolutionary fervor, which a organized far left can direct to victory.
The winners of the AI bubble are going to be authors, it turns out
Probably not. Any ruling that favors the highest profile, wealthiest authors will just be used as precedent to let media corporations and content hosts get a payout. Propertarian rulings always favor the largest property holders, and whenever some company is being liquidated the richest and most powerful stake holders in their debts always find a way to take all there is to take.
The judge took one look at the 14 pages ChatGPT generated to describe a meal and said “I’ve seen enough here.”
“New development from cutting edge tech firm: ctrl + c”

Remember what happened to that OpenAI employee who accused them of breaking copyright law? And he was a strapping young lad whereas people already had GRR Martin on their death pools for decades.
AI overlords getting shot with a crossbow by GRRM while taking a shit would be pretty funny (no I haven’t read the books).
Looks like they didn’t shit gold after all
The year is 2050. AI Trump is seeking a 12th term, Freddos are now £1.22 and George RR Martin is still nearly done with Winds of Winter.
No chance Congress won’t put in an exemption to keep the hype train going
intellectual property is a tool nay a fabrication of capital that will never serve us
