time for those of us without lawyers to start locking our stuff behind elaborate verification systems i guess
imagining a future where the public-facing internet is a giant facade, full of meaningless garbage specifically designed for LLMs to slurp up in the hopes that it will irreparably corrupt their datasets, while the real stuff meant for real human eyes is locked away behind the aforementioned elaborate verification systems that LLMs have no hope to ever crack
This…. Is not what “freeware” has ever meant, come on man
Like I’m extremely pro fair use and all that but this is like.. someone intentionally interpreting it in the most cynical possible way
That last part, "if you don't put up a sign explicitly saying no then that's consent for me to do whatever I want"
once again microsoft not beating the "has about the same understanding of consent as a sex pest" allegations
To be fair I think this is a mentality shared by most of the tech industry (and probably other lucrative sectors too), not just microsoft.
Microsoft is just the worst at hiding it, as they're usually the worst at everything.
so if a book is free to read at the library, and they'll even let me take it home, this must mean that I am also allowed to make copies and replace the author's name with my own and sell it?
because you are granted the right to look at a thing does not mean that it belongs to you now, this is logic that most household pets can understand
ah, no, those publishers have lawyers, so you can't. but other than that, yeah
