Apparently, stealing other peopleās work to create product for money is now āfair useā as according to OpenAI because they are āinnovatingā (stealing). Yeah. Move fast and break things, huh?
āBecause copyright today covers virtually every sort of human expressionāincluding blogposts, photographs, forum posts, scraps of software code, and government documentsāit would be impossible to train todayās leading AI models without using copyrighted materials,ā wrote OpenAI in the House of Lords submission.
OpenAI claimed that the authors in that lawsuit āmisconceive[d] the scope of copyright, failing to take into account the limitations and exceptions (including fair use) that properly leave room for innovations like the large language models now at the forefront of artificial intelligence.ā
When you think about it, all companies would make so much more money if they didnāt have to pay their staff, or pay for materials they use! This whole economy and capitalism business, which relies on money being exchanged for goods and services, is clearly holding back profits. Clearly the solution here is obvious: everybody should embrace OpenAIās methods and simply grab whatever they want without paying for it. Profit for everyone!
