stolen

please stop upholding the capitalist farce of intellectual property. the making shit up part is way more important and doesn't depend on structures we're aiming to tear down

I don't give a shit about intellectual property, I care that the artists who make the art can't buy food because Grok and Microsoft have trained bots to remove those artists' livelihoods with slop generation

yeah the operative there isn't stolen then?

Ignoring the theft legitimizes the idea that the training data, the models trained on the data, and output produced from those models belongs to the corporations.

the bad thing they're doing isn't depriving anyone of the original thing, as would occur if i went to someone's house and physically stole their painting.

if copying isn't theft when I copy stuff, it's not theft when somebody we don't like does it either.

In a bourgeois context it's a matter of property, in a post capitalist context it's a matter of consent

It's enclosure of intellectual commons and misuse of individual creations.
