Disney just announced yesterday that they were investing a billion dollars into OpenAI. I have a hard time believing any AI company is respecting copyright because infringement is their business model. This sort of reads like “the competition’s product is worse than ours.”
It’s hard to know who to root for in a battle between giant AI firms and equally giant entertainment companies.
You’re allowed to root for nobody. Sometimes everyone sucks.
Yeah, sure, they always take what isn’t theirs to begin with, copyright it, and sue the bejesus off of anybody that crosses them…
But what if this backfires, and Disney brings a lawyer to a lawyer fight and causes a wave of actual legal discovery, here? Like a weird accidental poison pill for the AI industry.
Well let’s say they get a judge who cares, then Disney money puts it into the supreme Court and Thiel tells the conservatives to beg for their treats and now only billionaires have copyright protection.

Wait a minute, maybe Disney’s on to something…

LET ME HOPE

I think you root for better antitrust and copyright protections, no? Seems like that author was suffering from a failure of imagination.
Maybe they are just being realistic given the current state of affairs. Our regulatory bodies should protect us. But they aren’t.
Or just looking to make that licensing deal woth Google much more expensive than the OpenAI one
