Gregory's Server@pinkdrunkenelephants The licenses already bar this because they govern derivative works. If you can make the derivative work non-derivative by defining it "AI", then if we add a nonsense clause banning "AI", the AI companies can simply rename "AI" to "floopleflorp" and say "Ah, but your license only bans 'AI'— it doesn't ban 'floopleflorp'!"

 @pinkdrunkenelephants But AI is not AI. The things that they're calling "AI" are just some machine learning statistical models. Ten years ago this wouldn't have been considered "AI".  @mcc Doesn't matter, what matters is the definition behind the word. That is what licenses ought to ban outright. It's like saying rape is perfectly legal so long as we call it forced sex. Who would believe that that wasn't already predisposed to rape? Don't fall for other people's manipulative mindgames? @pinkdrunkenelephants The definition behind the law is, again, decided by humans, who are capable of inconsistency or poor decisions. Rape is legal in New York because rape there is legally defined by the specific use of certain specific genitals. See E. Jean Carroll v. Donald J. Trump @mcc And no one accepts that because of what I'm saying. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. People need to start recognizing that fact. That's the only way things will change. @pinkdrunkenelephants Well, per my belief as to the meaning of words, ML statistical models are derivative works like any other, and my licenses which place restrictions on derivative works already apply to the ML statistical models |
@mcc They can rename it Clancy for all it matters. AI is still AI and actions don't just lose meaning because of evil people playing with language.
