    So why can’t I read them for free too? Only massive billion dollar companies get stuff for free?

    I would like to announce that I am pioneering a new AI program. Give me access to all of the movies for free please.

    Settle down, nerds. TACO just read from the card they gave him. He doesn’t think anything about AI. Of course, he’ll make the wrong decisions and cause utter chaos and strife but it’s not like he has an actual opinion about AI.

      Also, he’s talking about AI companies, i.e. the people who bribe him. How insolent of you plebes to assume you’d get the same rights.

        He gets the papers already ready to sign, I can’t imagine him writing bills.

        At most he can choose the name of the bill, as shown by the latest one, it’s so obvious that even stupid algorithms can guess it

    Can a human be expected to have a successful life when they have to pay for knowledge they need access to? I am not against the opinion that information should be free and freely accessible. But does this courtesy also extend to the common folk or is it exclusive to expensive machines and their owners? You wouldn’t download a United States government. da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

    We shouldn’t be calling these AI programs successful. In the slightest. They’re counterfeiting human thought and work.

      I know it’s popular to hate on LLMs here at Lemmy, but what is “Artificial Intelligence” if not “Counterfeiting Thought”? Those words map to each other pretty nicely

        Actually, let me add to my statement of it being intentional.

        There are things that AI applications can do that humans can’t.

        AI is all about analyzing large sets of variables and finding things. Take recent studies in pathology where AI can find the patterns of certain disease in tissue specimens. This only works because the enormous dataset that was provided was already vetted by pathologists. I would argue this isn’t counterfeiting human thought. This is enhancing an already utilized algorithm trained by doctors. Remember, a pathologist still needs to put their license on the line if they agree with the AI findings.

        There is NO accountability in LLMs. To many people it looks like it is thinking, it has understood what the person has said, and considered boundaries that exist in our minds, but maybe not communicated to the LLM.

        Thats why I call these AI programs unsuccessful and counterfeit. They’re giving users made by possibly unverified and unreliable data with no accountability.

      I’ll setup a JellAIfin server immediately. It’s just the regular Jellyfin code, but I am compiling my own version - it has “AI” added as a comment to every line of code before I compiled.

      There was an episode of behind the bastards I was listening to a while back where they mentioned some dude who was using an AI tool to scrape the internet to steal other people’s art, so people started doing something that prevented him from optimally stealing their art.

      I can’t remember what exactly, but the guy started whining that whatever people were doing was “illegal” bc it was damaging his tool he was using to steal other people’s shit for his own profit. Like somebody telling you that it’s illegal to prevent them from efficiently stealing your property bc it interferes with their livelihood. How dare you!

      Anyway, that’s the kind of vibes I get from this.

    Funny that when it was about protecting profits copyright was such a cornerstone principle but when it’s about protecting profits it can also be set aside.

    Don’t spend one more dollar on educational material. If a person had to pay for every textbook and online subscription, education would be impractical.

    Then maybe AI “programs” aren’t a good product. Next it will be, “we can’t be expected to make a good murderbot without murdering some people”

      Proceeds to start wars with every ethnicity to ensure the murder bots are trained to kill all variants of the population. “Of course they have to kill little people, how else will we know that a little person couldn’t judo chop them to death.”
