Excellent post. Shared to LinkedIn.

Had to block a Russian guy on LI who attacked me for recommending caution when proceeding with AI. He turned it into an ageist rant. I silently hope the CIA has him on their radar.

One thing these two guys miss in their analysis: Fair use generally presumes attribution. Which AI does not give. Even in cases where AI could be useful in data or text analysis, it still may not infringe copyright by not citing, or licensing.

That point needs to be more clearly made.

Thank you for this thoughtful discussion. While waiting on lawsuits to go through the process, Credtent.org has taken a proactive approach to helping creators opt-out or license their work, while also helping LLMs select credible, ethically-sourced content for training. With the new California Law SB 2013 that just passed, LLMs will need to ensure transparency in their training sets and that will invite more lawsuits if we don't get fair-market licensing under control.
