It would be like KFC saying you can’t try to figure out how we made this food by eating it and taking the food apart and tasting it and testing it. And, again in my opinion, contract law (i.e., the terms of use for using the models) also does not provide the companies a viable claim because of a weird section of copyright law that basically doesn’t allow state law claims, such as contract claims, to be brought when they are in effect basically copyright claims.
This is what most people don’t understand. Looking at a picture or looking at a web page is not stealing. Also, you can’t compress the entirety of “the internet” into a 20-200GB model. The claim that the data they store are even close to exact representations is bunk.
Oh, you’re using this argument to claim that models shouldn’t be considered confidential and “trade secrets”. Well, yeah, but also that argument can be turned the other way. Fair use still stands.
And I know you’re an IP attorney and all, but I would be okay if LLMs end up destroying the entire framework of copyright. It is a system created by the rich, to be only abused by the rich. We’re already seeing it slowly get dismantled first-hand with all of these decompiling experiments, and I’m sure that will be followed up with rich megacorps doing what they do best: playing the hypocrite by claiming one thing is infringing in their copyright, while what they do is totally legal.
Can we talk about the unnecessary death of the Oxford comma?
Fuck all headlines that don’t use it.
So is MapQuest, oddly enough.


It doesn’t help that the OP is some power mod for 8 different communities and posts about 30 articles a day. Bot or real person? Hard to tell.

Then post the original goddamn link! Some stupid blog site regurgitating stories from real news sites.
If you were actually in the professional world where people are using and learning alongside these new tools, you wouldn’t be so dismissive about it.
That’s what I don’t get. Do these people not have a working job? Are they driving a truck or doing manual labor? Do they work as a store clerk? Are they all stuck in the creatives industry?
Like, if you’re sitting in front of a computer as part of your job, you’re using LLMs. And if you aren’t, you’re probably using them indirectly and don’t even know it.
we would have also missed the train of the blockchain and NFTs.
Only an idiot that hasn’t used the tech compares LLMs to blockchain or NFTs.
And how could this amazing technology that literally doesn’t have a single positive point,
Again, hasn’t used the tech, and you’re stuck in defiant rage mode.
Well, fuck… how could I possibly win such a well-versed argument like that?!
No, you!
I’m fine with AI. I’m not fine with slop. Ban slop, not LLMs.

Maybe we use AI to detect the bad AI, and then blame that AI when it doesn’t work?


I wouldn’t pollute my Linux OS with that shit.


Ditto. Kinda miss my private tracker. But, 1337x + VPN works fine for me.


Moderation is a pretty thankless job, monotonous, and often subject to power-tripping biases. This seems like a broken-clock win for Reddit.
Dungeon Chill is another recommended one for those early games, though it’s usually weird RPGs, not always horror games.
EDIT: Actually, I kinda forgot how much horror games are in his collection.
Whelp, that’s about half of EarlyBird and Grimbeard’s content. Maybe a little bit of PushingUpRoses.
No offense, but I don’t get the point of this one. Even as a meme community, it has to have some sort of comedic hook to keep the posts and comments going.


Reddit is small fry to Google. They don’t give a fuuuuuuuck.


I’m not sure if you’re trying to be ironic on purpose or if you actually believe what you said.
