This is a link post UK Gov consultation on AI and copyright
TLDR: you can respond to the Gov's proposed plan to re-write copyright law to allow AI bros to mine your stuff by default, while creators must actively assert their rights to opt out.

Not funny, sorry, but may be of interest to b3tards.

This is a normal post It is of interest
and I'm opposed to having my ever so creatively stolen work being algorithmically STOLEN by AI because I'm a hypocrite with no sense of irony.

This is a normal post It doesn’t seem that different to an art student being inspired by copyrighted works.
In principle, anyway. Obviously in practice a person doing their own research at a human pace is nothing like the automated scraping of everything on the web.

Ironically, “technical solutions” as politicians like to call them never work; companies outside the UK can ignore whatever laws we make and anyone else can get around technical restrictions if they’re determined to.

See: The Evil Bit.

This is a normal post What a load of tripe
'AI developers are similarly finding it difficult to navigate copyright law in the UK, and this legal uncertainty is undermining investment in and adoption of AI technology.'

If you accept that law stops a potential business model from working then removing/changing that law is simply legalising the illegal.

What next? We have this wonderful paid assassination business model but its expansion is being prevented by laws against murder.
