Sarah Silverman Sues Maker Of ChatGPT For Copyright Infringement
The comic's suit questions if AI models can function without training themselves on protected works.

Personally I find this stupid. If we have robots walking around, are they going to be sued every time they see something that's copywrited?
It's this what will stop progress that could save us from environmental collapse? That a robot could summarize your shitty comedy?
Copywrite is already a disgusting mess, and still nobody cares about models being created specifically to manipulate people en mass. "What if it learned from MY creations" asks every self obsessed egoist in the world.
Doesn't matter how many people this tech could save after another decade of development. Somebody think of the [lucky few artists that had the connections and luck to make a lot of money despite living in our soul crushing machine of a world]
All of the children growing up abused and in pain with no escape don't matter at all. People who are sick or starving or homeless do no matter. Making progress to save the world from immanent environmental disaster doesn't matter. Let Canada burn more and more every year. As long as copywrite is protected, all is well.
How do you figure that AI is the answer to environmental collapse? Don't get me wrong, copyright law is stupid, but I guess I just don't buy into all of the AI hype to the extent that others are.
I believe it will require a level and pace of informational processing that is far beyond what humans will accomplish alone. just having a system that can efficiently sift through the excess existing papers, and find correlations or contradictions would be amazing for development of new technology. if you are paying attention to any environmental sciences right now, it's terrifying in an extremely real and tangible way. we will not outpace the collapse without an intense increase in technological development.
if we bridge the gap of analogical comprehension in these systems, they could also start introducing or suggesting technologies that could help slow down or reverse the collapse. i think this is much more important than making sure sarah silverman doesn't have her work paraphrased.
I disagree with your assessment that the climate crisis calls for a technical or scientific solution. We already have the technology and scientific information needed to fix the problem. The reason we haven't yet is actually for political and economic reasons. I can't envision a scenario where AI is able to fix the broken economic system that refuses to stop plundering our planet. I can't see AI fixing our politicians or PACs that manufacture lies and propaganda, keeping people oblivious to what's happening.
We already know how to stop climate change, but we, as in capitalist society, does not want to.
This won't even stop LLMs, ones from countries that don't respect copyright will simply advance past the ones that are. Like a Chinese tech company could simply ignore all that, and what, is Sarah Silverman going to sue Tencent in China? Good Luck. Tiktok uses copyrighted music constantly without permission, yet YouTube Shorts had to set up a system with the publishers. All that copyright laws in their current form do is hamper basically everyone for the sake of a few large companies.
