@ernie after all, coaxing an LLM to reproduce a reference work basically in full is pretty established research at this point. We know it's possible — it's how the tech started, by being able to reproduce a ground truth image despite never having actually been exposed to the original file.

I dunno, I'm just some idiot online.

@mitch Just thinking of how Aaron Swartz—how his good intentions got exploited by people looking to make maximum $$$ and an org actually working in his spirit is being threatened

@ernie I miss Aaron a lot, we used to chat through Reddit comments way back when. I'm very glad that he didn't have to see all this, let alone what Reddit and Steve Huffman both turned into.

@mitch @ernie Or they could create the Library of Babel and publish every book that ever was or will be written (for a given alphabet and character limit).

If that was the case Sarah Silverman's lawsuit wouldn't be going so poorly. They even avoid claiming it can produce the reference works.
