An AI corporation crying big tears over having its code copied without its consent in a way that undermines its business, maybe its very existence?

If it’s an April Fools joke, it’s brilliant.

@inthehands The thing is, the SCOTUS just confirmed that there’s no copyright in “AI” generated output. And Anthropic has boasted about how Claude codes Claude so, as numerous IP lawyers like me have warned, Anthropic is in a pickle. They’d *like* to say they have copyright and no one cans scrape and use it, but they’re in court arguing it’s legal for companies (them) to use whatever they can get their hands on, so… [insert gif of tiniest tiny violin] 😂

@riverpunk @j_bertolotti @inthehands Oh no, now it’s bothering *me* that they’re bowing on the wrong side of the bridge.
@fsinn @riverpunk @j_bertolotti
It’s a well-known technique — I even wrote it into a cello piece once! It produced a sort of creaky, wheezy squeaking sound. I think it’s perfect.

@inthehands @riverpunk @j_bertolotti Whew!

Also now I’m obviously going to look up your music.
