  • All sides are hypocrites when it comes to political violence. "Political violence is never acceptable" isn't the guiding principle underpinning any president or legislator's policy devisions. They only say it after political violence targets a member of their own class.

  • The stores that lock up their products are also the stores that don't enough employees to unlock the cases. The problem isn't shoplifting the problem is under-staffing.

    It's hard to shoplift in a store that is fully staffed.

  • I am illiterate ignore me.

    >Senk received a DMCA notice from Cloudflare's trust and safety team, which was then hosting the parody site.

    Cloudflare sent themselves a DMCA takedown notice, instead of just taking down the content from their own web hosting for violating their policies. Weird.

  • Parallel landings has special requirements. Most airports cannot do parallel landings and instead use one runway for landings and one for takeoffs.

    Aviation has a very low reporting threshold. Every minor breach of procedure or a near miss generates a report. The FAA estimates 16 million flights per year, with a total of 1760 runway incursions in 2023. A tenth of a percent incident rate is not bad.

    Imagine how the statistics would look if we held automobiles to the same reporting standards.

  • Companies are run by people. The human employees create copyrighted works that become the property of their employer by the terms of their contract. That's how work for hire contracts work....

    You would know this if you have ever worked in any creative field.

  • Because fair use is an affirmative defense to copyright infringement. To use a fair use defense you have to admit your work is infringing, but argue that the infringement is justifiable.

    Trying to defend the AI with fair use requires you to admit the AI itself is infringing, but justifiable, and by the doctrine of fair use, it is almost certainly not.

    Only humans can hold copyrights. Your example would be a non-infringing work because it lacks direct copying. An AI doing the same would make an uncopyrightable work, with the AI itself being infinging if you tried the fair use defense.

  • Fair use is a legal doctrine relating to derivitave works based on copyrighted works. An AI model's fair use determination would be judged by the same standards and all derivative works.

    It doesn't matter how they used the copyrighted works. This factor is about scale not intent.

    There are four factors, and no single factor is determinative. But admitting their model uses as much training as possible makes their model less likely to be fair use.

  • One of the four fair use factors is the portion of the copyrighted work that was taken. For a finding of fair use under this factor, the infringing work must only take the amount of copyrighted material needed for the infringing work's purpose.

    If they ripped every single file they have access to, there's no way to be found as fair use under this factor. If they argue they were using a curated list of only the works they needed to develop their model it could be fair use, but admitting to taking every possible work in their entirety is a surefire way to fail a fair use defense.

  • The us is actively sanctioning venezuela. The us is not an impartial observer, they have an active interest in the outcome of the election.

    Statements from most other countries on venezuela's election are more credible than the us.
