    The venality of the GenAI firms is breathtaking to behold.

    They insist that their widespread theft of intellectual property to train their models should be treated as transformative fair use, but that model distillation attacks by overseas competitors are somehow crossing a line.

    And their proposed solution to this made-up problem is lobbying the Trump regime for Juche-inspired isolationism.

    Which, you know, has been working out swell for North Koreans.

    All of this while their models churn out CSAM and nonconsensual intimate images, suggestions for suicide to their customers suffering from mental illness, and criminal hacking campaigns against competing firms and business partners, all at the expense of our land, electricity, clean air, and drinking water.

    @DaveMWilburn It's a beautiful job of "trainingwashing": because of the nondeterministic brute-force method of data compression, they can frame their "storing stolen data in searchable, highly compressed form" as if it wasn't "storing". But it clearly is, and done in a way that only people rich enough to somehow run a 900b parameter model as t heir daily driver can see that 100% of the data is there, clear as day.

    Oh, and packaged with a nice language translation engine. A nice touch.
