Absolutely.
Unworkable copyright maximalist take that wouldn’t help artists but would further entrench corporate IP holders.
You want to try explaining how, or is throwing basic claims it?
What, explain why “artists should pay artists that they study” is an unworkable copyright maximalist take? No, that’s self evident. How it won’t actually help artists, but would further entrench the corporate IP hoarders? No, I won’t do that either. It’s self evident. If your position is literally that artists should pay the artists that inspire them and that they study, you’re a deeply unserious person whose position doesn’t deserve to be seriously debated.
Uh huh. So you don’t actually want to discuss, you just want to be insulting and shut down conversation?
No it’s just a nonsense suggestion.
Another insult. I honestly shouldn’t be surprised.
No one is insulting you. How are you going to pay he unnumbered generations of humanity from which art has grown?
It’s a nonsense suggestion
It’s quite insulting when you dismiss without any greater reasoning than naming an argument. It’s subtle, but it wouldn’t exactly fly in any kind of serious rl discussion. There’s a difference between addressing an argument and simply calling it names and refusing to provide elaboration.
Obviously you can’t pay dead people, nor did I say you had to. You could easily simply start, without making it retroactive.
At least you’re consistent!
I find that a little bit of a specious argument actually. An LLM is not a person, it is itself a commercial derivative. Because it is created for profit and capable of outproducing any human by many orders of magnitude, I think comparing it to human training is a little simplistic and deceptive.
And artists are not capable of creating art for profit?
Technology is always advancing. Trying to stop it is futile.
Are you serious.
Yes, quite. Why wouldn’t I be?
