Post 100: has to be future, right?

Well -- I can feed LLM a list of Cool Band Names I've come
up with; it dutifully then begins grinding out its own Cool
Band Names....

......for an arbitrary period of time....

then something goes wrong.
differently, every time

I present to you: Crossfading¹ from Cool Band Names into
Jaron Lanier's wikipedia entry!! ~ LAZY_TITLE ~ followed
by a hard tangent into virtual pharmacies²

¹ kind of impressive, in a strange way
² 60% of the scraped web content used to build the model

very much doubt you're actually interested

but the latest video from the redletter media guys was just
them making fun of actual death metal band names.

my favorite was "Mortuary Drape"

eventually everyone realizes these companies with their
giant models have scraped the internet, stolen everyone's
shit, and... the AI image generator does things like
hallucinate the gettyimages watermark, all the writers start
complaining they're not getting royalties from their work
being thrown into a blender
--EpicMegatrax, May 3rd,
2023

and then here is wired, with an article from TODAY ~

AI’s rise has caused a revaluation of what people put
on the internet. Artists who feel their work was scraped by
AI without credit or compensation are seeking recourse. Fan
fiction writers who shared their work freely to entertain
fellow fans now find their niche sex tropes on AI-assisted
writing tools. Hollywood screenwriters are currently on
strike to make sure AI systems aren’t enlisted to do their
work for them. No, TV and film writers don’t write for the
internet, but so much of what they create ends up online
anyway, ready to be plucked.

i also screamed about what reddit's IPO would bring and no
one listened to me on that either, obviously. however, i
failed to see how my being right about reddit's IPO
intersected with my being right about people waking up and
realizing AI stole their fanfiction, and, sorry, i'll try to
do better next round.

[really, the issue was that i hadn't considered: what if i
take two things i am sure i am right about, and put them
together?]

but in a cycling sense, i should probably stop posting
anything good publicly

i get it that no one cares i'm playing out the thred

1) eventually everyone realizes these companies with
their giant models have scraped the internet, stolen
everyone's shit, and... the AI image generator does things
like hallucinate the gettyimages watermark, all the writers
start complaining they're not getting royalties from their
work being thrown into a blender

2) a lawsuit here, a lawsuit there, eventually a reliable
pattern for how to sue AI for IP infringement and then the
lawyers move in like the visigoths

3) AI is shut down and the only people who can use it are,
like, fucking jimmy iovine, because if you spend a few
million and build your own model out of pirated stuff and
keep it in-house then you can effectively get away with it
because to do that you're already rich enough that you'll be
very hard to sue. microsoft is probably already using it
to quietly rip off who knows what


we're at early #2, obvs ~ LAZY_TITLE

but then 3b, 3 -- the bolded parted -- oh hello caught

meanwhile: between you and me, i strongly suspect musk cut
off public twitter access in order to strongarm an AI data
licensing deal for twitter. that, hey, reddit did it? if i
starve them too, i can... ...and, boom, he's opened it up;
he must have gotten a deal. for twitter's increasingly
irrelevant data

well, interesting. so there is this here leaked
internal google document which does make me feel a bit
better, because it's like "epic was right" except this was
written in march or something and, okay, so long as someone
is ahead of me being ahead of everyone else i'm not mad any
more.

especially because their conclusion is "small models will
kick the ass of these giant models in the long run, and
anyone can do those on their own with open source, and, um,
we have no value to add as a large corporation?"

...and it's basically a memo about how they're fucked, why,
and... yes, it looks like this was leaked MAY 4TH

and i started going on about this on the 3rd... hmmm.....
anyone on zilty posting from the googleplex?

While our models still hold a slight edge in terms of
quality, the gap is closing astonishingly quickly.
Open-source models are faster, more customizable, more
private, and pound-for-pound more capable. They are doing
things with $100 and 13B params that we struggle with at
$10M and 540B. And they are doing so in weeks, not
months.

a string of text that might look like gobbledygook to you
or me but which carries subtle significance to an AI model
trained on huge quantities of web data—can defy all of
these defenses in several popular chatbots at once.


i flat-out missed this one. it's so obvious retrospect too

U.S. copyright law, she underscored, “protects only
works of human creation” and is “designed to adapt with
the times.” There’s been a consistent understanding that
human creativity is “at the core of copyrightability, even
as that human creativity is channeled through new tools or
into new media,” the ruling stated.

While cameras generated a mechanical reproduction of a
scene, she explained that they do so only after a human
develops a “mental conception” of the photo, which is a
product of decisions like where the subject stands,
arrangements and lighting, among other choices.

“Human involvement in, and ultimate creative control over,
the work at issue was key to the conclusion that the new
type of work fell within the bounds of copyright,” Howell
wrote.

In another case, the a federal appeals court said that a
photo captured by a monkey can’t be granted a copyright
since animals don’t qualify for protection


...and, do me, that's really what settles it. if the monkey
can't own a copyright, neither can an AI DM
