Please fully read and understand the document linked in the tweet below. I’ll be writing my response next week.
There are several questions and much to consider, I urge you to understand, ponder, and reply to them in a professional manner if possible.
Anyway this is the original interview if you want to check it out. It has since been edited.
You should be giving them hell for this https://t.co/O3pcT968yB
For those out of the loop, earlier this week AO3's HEAD OF THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT was in an ao3 blogpost publicly gushing about training AI on fanfics. This has since been deleted.
AO3's "apology statement" is that "futurely, you can opt out :)" THIS SHOULDN'T BE OPT-OUT.
@OTW_News Sorry, but “users should be allowed to OPT OUT from having their works incorporated into AI training sets” is ridiculous.
Users should be allowed to ‘OPT IN’. That should be the default. Not the other way around. This seriously puts in doubt the sincerity of their intentions.
