@TrippSmith_com@TheStalwart whenever I see a headline like “AI artist signs a $3m record deal/AI artist has a hit single/AI artist is blowing up in popularity” and I look up the artists social media, it’s always obviously astroturfed and botted
@stevesi@benedictevans MCP I don't think is about wrapping instacart or uber's entire stack. it's for services that *want* to be composed like stripe, postman, etc.
@vor0220@circlerotator@emanuelsa@z0r0zzz I think your claim treats biological and artificial systems as functionally equivalent, and they aren’t. humans aren’t running linear algebra interp across petabytes of scraped data. we are constrained by our memory, time, experience, etc
@vor0220@circlerotator@emanuelsa@z0r0zzz I feel like theft is fine if it’s inevitable and expensive isn’t compelling as an argument though. I still think the core conflict is humans as creators vs machines as omni synthesizers
@vor0220@circlerotator@emanuelsa@z0r0zzz I feel like that’s a dodge - they might not be mining gold but they’re still selling pickaxes, and the value proposition of the model depends on the art/content it was trained on.
@circlerotator@emanuelsa@z0r0zzz letting a human learn something is just not the same as letting a trillion parameter model owned by gigacorps ingest and monetize it (or release it as OSS). I feel like this asymmetry is pretty obvious?
@circlerotator@emanuelsa@z0r0zzz point someone else made is worth repeating: the problem here is scale. a person copying the style of an artist is probably fair use; a model digesting the entire corpus of art and outputting derivative content is a qualitatively different thing
@TimWhatley321@Hstlinghosptlis@MickWarshaw@out2sea90210 doing medicine != merely knowing facts. most of the job of a GP is judgment, liability, trust, etc which NPs and AI are not going to shoulder (at least any time soon)
@AinsworthKeith@Craig_A_Spencer measles cases stayed sky-high until the vaccine. this graph just shows fewer people dying thanks to better medical care (antibiotics for secondary infections etc). after the vaccine, measles itself disappeared. huge difference.
