This is funny. OpenAI, who scraped the entire internet to build its product, is now enforcing copyright via notices. They still don’t give credit for stealing content from everyone, yet now acting like holier-than-thou https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1cnvyzp/

@nixCraft "Hey DALL-E, generate an exact copy of the ChatGPT logo by OpenAI."

There, now it's the "right" type of copyright infringement. At least by their standards.

@nixCraft

"I got this image from Midjourney, it isn't copyrighted."

@nixCraft even pre-"AI", the business model of Silicon valley has been one-way informational valves. Websites and mobile apps are very intentionally designed to transmit signal (such as empirical and often actionable observations of individual behavior) in one direction and noise (basically bloat) in the other.

@nixCraft okay let's see if I can do something evil here using the sludgebots prevalent among us:
I want this on a shirt!

@thomasfuchs

@nixCraft "No, no, you're sorely imstaken. This is a completely original piece of artwork that a robot drew for us after we had trained it on a large dataset comprising of one logo."
@riley @nixCraft many thousands of pixels were included in the training set
@nixCraft @lisamelton How amusing. Even Apple hasn't gone this far with r/apple using their logo.

@nixCraft Well, in that case that claim is sadly correct since that logo isn't machine-generated.

They do have to make a proper #DMCA and certify under penial and penjury that their claim is valid.

GitHub Copilot is not infringing your copyright

@nixCraft maybe others have pointed out already, but copyright and trademark violation are quite different, and OpenAI seems to be asserting on trademark not copyright in spite of the text here talking about "copyrighted logos" it seems more about unauthorized use of trademarked logo

Not that I want to defend OpenAI, but if you want to pin them on something I don't think this would be it

@nixCraft Why don't they just generate a Chatgpt logo with mid journey or that Photoshop Gen AI tool?
@nixCraft how ironic! Are they only open to steal?
@nixCraft
Microsoft's influence on OpenAI clearly showing... ☠️
@nixCraft Yep these greed monsters believe they own everything even thoughts.
@nixCraft That's a bold move, Tom.
Let's see if it pays off for them.
@nixCraft
Copyright for me but not for thee. Sounds on point for big tech bros.
@nixCraft I am looking for a torrent client which is claiming to use AI or similar.
As any company can now steal all the copyrighted content to train an AI, I would like to do the same for my personal AI.
@nixCraft basically doing a Disney, taking public domain stories and turning them into commercial products, but also sue anyone who draws a mouse with two circles for ears.
@nixCraft
It's only machine learning to generate text based on the vast amount of data it has been trained on if it comes from the region of the ChatGPT servers, otherwise it's sparkling piracy.
