  • I used to be a musician, I also used to paint. I think my thought processes are no more complex than most computers, and I genuinely don’t believe human creativity is special even a little bit, like consciousness, it’s a subjective illusion.

    I do not believe in things like copyright, or intellectual property, or even ownership of these things, I think these things should be collectively owned by society.

    I don’t disagree with you from lack of experience, I disagree from fundamentally different ideological underpinnings.

    I believe there is nothing special about human perception and experience, and I can see the ways that technology maps near perfectly to the way we think. AI shouldn’t be limited, it should replace us.


  • This is why I think people don’t know what they are talking about.

    You can look at a picture from an artist without it being considered theft, so are your memories and impressions theft? That’s what training data does, it teaches AI what something looks like, with many samples. It’s literally what your brain does, the way you see multiple dogs and know what a dog looks like is the same way that AI trains pattern recognition.

    It’s completely reasonable and desirable to have AI consume all available images, regardless of copyright the way your eyes and brain can do the same. Training data isn’t theft no more than going to a museum and looking at art is theft.

    This take that this is bad is completely unhinged and indicates people don’t understand AI.
