With the latest announcement regarding google allegedly paying reddit 60million per year for access to user created content to train their AI, what is stopping companies from using the freely available information on the lemmyverse to do it for free?
How does everyone feel about the likelihood of this already happening and should something be done about it?
Oh, I didn’t exactly understand what you meant 😅
I realize that I didn’t exactly specify, so you were entirely right to say what you did. I was just referring to pre-AI books with established utility and veracity. Likening things to a modern fallen Rome, rife with knowledge to uncover. And I fully understand why none of that came through given that I neither wrote nor implied any of it. Your nitpick was very much appreciated.
