  • AI training should not be a privilege of the mega-corporations. We already have the ability to train open source models, and organizations like Mozilla and LAION are working to make AI accessible to everyone. We can't allow the ultra-wealthy to monopolize a public technology by creating barriers that make it prohibitively expensive for regular people to keep up. Mega corporations already have a leg up with their own datasets and predatory terms of service that exploit our data. Don't do their dirty work for them.

    Denying regular people access to a competitive, corporate-independent tool for creativity, education, entertainment, and social mobility, we condemn them to a far worse future, with fewer rights than we started with.

  • You might want to read this article by Kit Walsh, a senior staff attorney at the EFF, and this one by Katherine Klosek, the director of information policy and federal relations at the Association of Research Libraries. YouTube's one-sided strike-happy system isn't the real world.

    Headlines like these let people assume that it’s illegal, rather than educate them on their rights.

  • It doesn't really, I was just kind of restating what you quoted. Since no one factor of fair use is more important than the others, and it is possible to have a fair use defense even if you do not meet all the criteria of fair use, do you have data to back up your claims about moneymaking infringement?

  • It likely doesn't break the law. You should check out this article by Kit Walsh, a senior staff attorney at the EFF, and this one by Katherine Klosek, the director of information policy and federal relations at the Association of Research Libraries.

  • The way it was done if I remember correctly is that someone found out v6 was trained partially with Stockbase images-caption pairs, so they went to Stockbase and found some images and used those exact tags in the prompts.

  • Gacha games cultivate an inherent expectation of freebies, especially during significant events like anniversaries. Betraying this expectation, as seen here, can easily lead to player frustration and protests. It might seem entitled to an outsider, but for veterans, this expectation stems from the established norms of the genre.

    This protest isn't about quitting the game. Like you said, they don't hate it. They're just asking for more fair treatment within the established system.

  • Just for reference, Final Fantasy Ever Crisis gave its players:

    New year:

    • Blue Crystal x3,000 (10 premium draws)
    • 5* Wpn. Guaranteed Draw Ticket
    • Draw Ticket x20
    • New Year 1 -Time-Only 5* Guaranteed Free x10
    • draw up to 240 free draws over the campaign (daily x10 Draw), and also Blue Crystal x10,000 in total (30 premium draws and some change)
    • Blue Crystal x1,000 and Draw Ticket x100 from missions.
    • 1 free x10 draw with 4* or higher guaranteed in 10th slot

    And much, much more.

    Mihoyo treats its players like trash compared to the rest of the industry. They have every right to be mad.
