"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Microsoft faces accusations from a collective of authors who claim the tech giant developed an artificial intelligence model using around 200,000 unlawfully copied books. This marks the latest development in the ongoing legal dispute over copyrighted material involving creators and technology firms.

Authors, including Kai Bird, Jia Tolentino, and Daniel Okrent, have brought forward claims that Microsoft taught its Megatron AI to generate human-like responses by utilising pirated digital copies of their books.

Didn't the same thing happen with authors and google 10+ years ago? That wasn't ever resolved, was it? Normally, I'd look it up, but I have a feeling I'd be spending time to be disappointed by the answer.
