Why do you hate libraries? Does DaVinci get royalties when I replicate his engineering work?

[–] tb_@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Please quote me the part where I said or implied I hate libraries.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You've been defending people's right to burn them down all thread.

[–] tb_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have, at no point, implied legitimate businesses/organizations should be burned down.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No you implied that other structures of communal data storage should be burned down; but for some reason you disingenuously disassociate those to others because of some self-perceived definition over what is legitimate knowledge.

AI is a librarian, datasets are the library. You want to set fire to the stacks, fuck everyone else's hard work.

[–] tb_@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If AI were a librarian I'd be able to go there and find the works of whatever artists they kept copies of. Last I checked, that is not the case. Are you sure you know how these machine learning algorithms work?

If the AI is set fire to, all of the artists still keep their individual works or art on whatever websites they were before they got scraped.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you can't define their individual works are they really there?

I can read and absorb Nietzsche, yet you won't find his books in my head.

[–] tb_@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And no, DaVinci doesn't. That's why copyright expires and items go into the public domain after a set amount of years.

A "set" amount of years massive corporations have been all too happy to push back, but that's another conversation.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So you're OK with burning down libraries as long as it's for Capitalism, makes more sense...

[–] tb_@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm OK with libraries getting sued for ripping off writers/artists.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You don't know how libraries work, just like you don't understand AI.

[–] tb_@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah I think you're the one who doesn't know

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Don't conflate your ignorance with other people's knowledge. You think, because you don't know.
