OpenAI could be fined up to $150,000 for each piece of infringing content.

That’s something that can currently be done by a human and is generally considered fair use.

That’s kind of the point though isn’t it? Fair use is only fair use because it’s a human doing it, not an algorithm.

That is not actually one of the criteria for fair use in the US right now. Maybe that’ll change but it’ll take a court case or legislation to do.

I am aware of that, but those rules were written before technology like this was conceivable.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
