The output of the training, the model (LLM) itself, is transformative. I’m not talking about the output of the llm nor was the person I was responding to.

The pirating issue has nothing to do with the current lawsuit (the New York Times one mentioned in the article) nor did the government mention it in the current context.

That being said, I’m a pirate in my personal life, and I also think it’s kind of a necessary evil when it comes to building SOTA models. I wish we had a copy left solution to it, so you can use pirated data but need to open source it, so open source has a fighting chance and big AI can buy it if they want it. I’m okay with openAI and anthropic getting brought into court about it I guess, but the legislation ends up being market capture in their favor in the end.

I understand the issues though, very “rule for thee but not for me” currently.

Per the article, he’s talking about doctors.

You can make a pokemon ripoff with Photoshop, should Photoshop be illegal? Is it the tools fault or the user’s fault?

Precendent was already there. Copyright has never been enforceable when it’s transformative. Collage is legal, so was training neural nets before the copyright industry saw money in it.

None of what you said is wrong but I think it’s a bit simplistic to compare it to a resolution jump or to bring up Indy graphics vs AAAA as a sign that nobody cares anymore.

FPS is indeed the real killer though, you can’t really run this without high end cards and the difference is simply not worth the price for most people.

If you have copyright juggernauts gatekeeping the data through legislation, then you can’t have open-source models.

I’m surprised how many want to shoot consumers in the face just to protect mafia like companies like Universal Studios and YouTube.

Training a model with copyright material = fine

Creating copyright material and distributing it = not okay

I can infringe copyrights with Photoshop, or just copy pasting the image itself.

We don’t need to knee cap tools and force everything behind subscription services with censorship just to satisfy the copyright industries craving for blood.

The owner looking at me slowly climb his fence for the fourth time this week

I really hate how they are rolling with the Australian gym incident. They had a completely open API. Imagine having a button on your front page that sends you to the admin page without asking for a password, and then telling people you were “hacked”.

It’s a 2$ increase from 13$ to 15$. I feel like most people don’t care and it’s more of a boiled frog situation than anything else. I doubt anyone is seriously going to cancel for an extra 2$ unless they were already planning too tbh.

I highly doubt anything other than final assembly with the case is being done. PCB aren’t hand soldered anymore, a machine does all the work. If it was built in the US, it wouldn’t be dealing with tarrifs in any case so clearly, there’s as much slave labor involved as every other product.

Before it becomes an issue, yes I think tariffs are dumb. Its just silly to assume these guys are the only ones doing ethical gameboy gimmick toys and that’s why it’s overpriced.

A quick google actually tells me it’s manufactured in Malaysia so they don’t even do final assembly. PCB is most likely China.

No.

He said “so close, yet so far” which is saying nothing.

Whatever it plays, it’s still just an stm32, an esp and a screen. It’s still just 35$ in parts being sold for more than double the price a phone that can play Wii games would cost. It’s a gimmick. You are falling for a gimmick.

I guess it’s nice to pretend and not even make a point. You have said nothing.

All little mini game boys are a serious rip off. It’s just an stm32, an esp32 and a screen. We’re talking maybe 35$ to build one without bulk pricing. The crank is just decoration, it doesn’t even do anything.

He isn’t necessarily wrong on this one. It’s at least worth a try.

I fail to see why that would matter. You don’t lower the bar because most aren’t reaching it, this isn’t highschool gym class.

It does come off as a kind of fake grief. I also block all the wholesome meme communities, so it’s annoying to see the regular meme comms get flooded with “remember when (celebrity) did this and showed everyone how good of a person they are”.

Don’t really see the point in downvoting it but it definitely makes me roll my eyes.

No, it’s what it gives.
