Judge sides with OpenAI, dismisses bulk of book authors’ copyright claims
OpenAI plans to defeat authors' remaining claim at a "later stage" of the case.
@arstechnica
And the oligarch court sides with the oligarchs. Predictable.
@NMBA @arstechnica no, it sided with the artists.
The artists, in this case, were arguing the position "end non-corporate art."
It was a bad position, thank God it failed.
@NMBA @arstechnica So, the “oligarchs” are the ones creating a free and open technology that facilitates open access to knowledge that was previously locked up and unaffordable? That would mean that the good guys are the copyright trolls trying to prevent the sharing of ideas and information for free to protect their royalties. Because when most people think of oligarchs, they think of Disney, Bloomberg, etc., not hackers.

I’ll have to do more research, but my early take is that the AI oligarchs are harvesting copyrighted material without permission or compensation, then using the corrupt courts to enshrine their blatant thievery. They should stick to creating AI out of free nazi material on X, Facebook and Truth if they won’t pay copyright holders
@NMBA @arstechnica Have you paid everyone for all the knowledge that you have learned or benefited from? I’m giving you knowledge here, where’s my compensation?
@frank_w @arstechnica
Are you an oligarch? You talk like one.
@NMBA @arstechnica And cue the name-calling. It would probably be more effective if you knew what that word meant.
@frank_w @arstechnica
Frank: internet free because oligarchs good
Oligarchs:
@arstechnica If only the judge ordered them to file all briefs using AI...
done differently But what about Japan and its views on this though? 
So Pirate Bay is just a source of training material for video AI models. Cool.
@arstechnica and @internetarchive isn't a library?
@arstechnica a victory for open knowledge!
