Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

If Disney wants to stop me from using genAI or pirating, they can pry it out of my cold, dead hands.

Intellectual property is a myth, copyright is nothing more than calling dibs, and neither have enough merit for me to give a shit about either. Once an idea exists and is released into the public, it’s mine to use however I want. And use it I will, regardless of whatever the artists or developers who made it think.

Big tech about to erupt into a civil war over whether or not they got into the AI slop bubble early.

@aihorde@lemmy.dbzer0.com draw for me a picture of Mickey Mouse.

So obviously actually being an artist who draws things and someone using an AI slop machine are very different in practice, but I find it interesting that they're saying the images are unauthorized copies. Is it illegal to draw these characters now too? Or is it different because a human did it?

Imagine if Midjourney wins and the only thing you need to legally pirate anything is to self host a LLM.

The future of piracy is going to be running your own LLM with all the corpo-mandated guardrails disabled.

let them fight

Disney is insufferable. Also another reason to have these models as open source and downloadable. They won't be able to really take it down.

i wish they could kill each other off... corpos are parasites

fuck Walt Disney right in the goat ass.

'See ya, real soon!' ....in court.
