Anthropic lost a class action suit for scraping books. Writers can register with Anthropic to be compensated for their pillaging of our copyrights.
The compensation system was AI-coded.
Anthropic can't keep track of our submissions. They don't know who wrote what.
Their customer support is AI-driven. Send a mail! Log in to a nonexistent page! Resubmit and it'll be fine!
This will be fine. 
@mwl Modern life built on quicksand.
Why so many rush to predicate way too much on unproven tech. Worse - tech proven to be flawed.
@JorisMeys @NicelyManifest @mwl Well, I guess the plaintiffs will motion for an enforcement procedure and the court will appoint a special master for somewhere around 1000 USD per hour ...
How will that keep them from having to pay?
@tessarakt I co-authored R for Dummies. So I split between my co-author Andrie de Vries and the publisher. They'll pay out those that manage to get through allright, but for me to get registered is nigh impossible, and starting a case from Belgium about malicious compliance for a few hundred dollars, not going to do that.
And that's exactly the intended result.
@JorisMeys @tessarakt @mwl R is new to me. I thought you were abbreviating. And a new kind of app/tool/system.
Was unsure what you meant by registration impossibility.
@NicelyManifest
It's about the Anthropic case of intellectual theft.
@mwl But what if you never wanted your work in the model in the first place? They have no way of removing your works?
Even twenty years ago, judges would have shut this shit down, and laughed as the AI peddlers ran out of the courtroom with their tails tucked between their legs. It is just such absolutely blatant theft.
But then big money got behind it, and now its all, "Nooooo, we can't let AI fail! The Chinese might beat us to the singularity!" We neeeeed AI for nazional securitay!
@xgebi it's big discussion over on bsky, and I've experienced it myself.
They're proposing corrections on my original filing to add books included in the original filing, providing multiple incompatible answers to questions on how to correct filings, and the human help desk says it's buggy software and they can't help you.
