Steve Bannon & other US conservatives just called for the government not to make AI training fair use.
“It is absurd to suggest that licensing copyrighted content is a financial hindrance to a $20 trillion industry spending hundreds of billions of dollars per year.”

🚨BREAKING: Hawley Exposes Meta for WILLFULLY Breaking Copyright Laws . . .
And then training its AI models to LIE about it

AI companies are behind the largest intellectual property theft in HISTORY.
We prosecute individuals for piracy, so why hasn't Big Tech faced any consequences?

And there you have it: Evidence shows that Meta employees KNEW they shouldn’t use pirated material but did so anything 👉

Hear it firsthand from bestselling author @davidbaldacci on Big Tech's theft of his copyrighted content:
"Every single one of my books was presented to me in . . . three seconds, it really felt like I had been robbed of everything of my entire adult life that I had worked on."

Powerful testimony from Professor Bhamati Viswanathan, an IP law expert, before the Senate Judiciary Committee today:
"If you know that you can go to a pirate website and steal things, why would you ever pay for anything again?...We need new technologies to flourish fairly."

@PamelaSamuelson @neilturkewitz That’s what they call in the business a “sucker punch”. You know that Neil wasn’t in the room. Well I was in the room and you know full well That there was no voting on these issues at all. Never. I logged. Ack onto X again just to set the record straight. logging off again
English
@neilturkewitz Yes. They wanted to control its contents and were outvoted by others who thought the ALI reporters had correctly stated the law
English
You weren’t in the room when the reporters listened carefully to concerns expressed and vowed to take them into account. The ALI Council is not a rubber stamp. They insist on a fair deliberative process & they have cleared the copyright restatement drafted for membership review
neil turkewitz@neilturkewitz
@PamelaSamuelson I haven’t been closely following the Restatement project for some time now, but the complaints about process have been consistent & uniform…and from people I trust. Putting this down as “sore losing” as opposed to resistance to policy preferences framed as law seems unfair.

“It doesn’t give you the right to take their work without permission.”
🙏🏽
As @ednewtonrex says, licensing doesn’t imply a single standard…& payments aren’t necessarily small. Some creators may demand % of company value, not revenue. I sure would given that revenue is shaky.

“Just because a payment is small doesn’t mean a creator doesn’t want it,” @fairlytrained CEO @ednewtonrex tells #BrainstormAI of AI copyright issues. “It doesn’t give you the right to take their work without permission.” trib.al/zkkNqHh

“IA asks this Court to bless the large scale copying & distribution of copyrighted books without permission from or payment to the Publishers or authors…This may be what IA & its amici prefer, but it is not an approach that the Copyright Act permits.”

And see…

@vkhosla Further, saying that we oppose anything that is corporate or entrepreneurial is equally wrong. We at the Copyright Alliance support respectful, ethical, and responsible use and development of AI. That does not make us woke loonies.
English
All the woke loonies come out condemning anything corporate or entrepreneurial. The very language they use connotes a very biased narrow minded religious dogma against anything against the “struggling artist” image. Good artists will leverage these tools for even more greatness.
neil turkewitz@neilturkewitz
@MikeNelson @vkhosla Please don’t delete your post. I want it to exist. I want lots of people to see it. I want artists around the world to recognize what we’re up against. That some think that exploitation is the essence of America. In many ways you are perhaps tragically right. Here, you are not.
English
@vkhosla Calling someone a "woke loonie" because they disagree you, really? Much of what you said comparing human leaning to AI ingestion is just plain wrong.

Many in the AI world underestimate the backlash against AI. It is serious & growing.
AI developers need to understand the strength of feeling & really engage with people on this.
A few examples:
1. A London cinema dropped AI-written film after backlash.

Transformativeness under © law doesn’t mean what AI companies think it means, nor is it the be-all & end-all of fair use. Even Judge Leval, father of “transformativeness,” argues that the likely impact on the original creator is the most important factor.
Ed Newton-Rex@ednewtonrex
Generative AI companies call their use of copyrighted work to train models 'transformative' because they hope this gets them off the hook legally. It doesn't. Two important things to remember about 'transformative' use of copyrighted work, outlined here by Jane C. Ginsburg: 1. Simply transforming something doesn't make it 'transformative' in this context. Transformativeness is not just a measure of distance in e.g. pixel space; it includes the *purpose* of the use. 2. Even if a use *is* judged to be transformative (see 1), transformativeness is not the only factor in fair use decisions. If you hear people describing their use of copyrighted work for AI training as 'transformative', please bear this in mind: the output being aesthetically different to the input does not necessarily make the use 'transformative' in the eyes of the law, and there is lots besides transformativeness that is important. scholarship.law.columbia.edu/faculty_schola…
