more great work by David Newhoff exposing yet another #cyberlibertarian gish gallop (sadly, this one at a generally good site, The Scholarly Kitchen) deliberately & badly misreading the law, the judge's decision, & the underlying ideas in #InternetArchive vs Hachette https://illusionofmore.com/internet-archive-defender-alleges-the-second-circuit-doesnt-know-the-law/ #copyright #fairuse

Neil Turkewitz (@neilturkewitz@twitter.com): "This shifting of wealth from the public to powerful companies has now come into crystal clear vision with the emergence of #generativeAI models.

I think a good case can be made that generating art using AI trained on copyrighted images is fair use--when done for noncommercial purposes.

Done commercially, it will likely have a serious impact on the market for artists' work--a factor that tends to weigh heavily when courts decide whether the use of copyrighted material is legal or not.

Copyright verpest alles weer:

Hoe haalt een sportverslaggever het in z'n hoofd om mensen enthousiast te maken over de Olympische Spelen!

Die ontbrekende tweet in het midden was de video.

Dit lijkt een duidelijk geval van fair use -- een reporter die verslag doet van iets.
