    IMO it’s one thing if you posted things publicly on the internet and it’s getting scraped, in the same way a human would find it.

    But it’s disgusting when all these companies retroactively update their TOS, or force you into zero privacy to continue using their service.

      This is the entire issue for me.

      Privatizing what is otherwise public content, and then privatizing the models that are trained on that content and making me pay for having it regurgitated back at me.

      I think AI would be really cool, IF:

      • it wasn’t being shoved into every goddamn thing
      • it wasn’t being used as justification to cut jobs
      • it was a open source project and wasn’t being gatekept by capitalist interests

      How is the latter example different? You think they weren’t scraping your posts this whole time??? Just because they’re telling you now due to ai doesn’t mean they werent scraping B4.
