I’m sure the regular people being stolen from will definitely win against the gigantic multi-trillion dollar company this time. 🫩

Sorry for the negativity. We’ve seen this play out so many times. Courts keep ruling that it’s okay when the companies do it to us peasants, but it’s life-ruining if a peasant does it to a company.

If scrapping YouTube is against the law, that just means Google owns all video generation as well as anything to do with speech for the most part. Whisper was built mainly on YouTube vids.

Obligatory F DMCA, but also F Apple.

The lawsuit is about this paper by apple researchers where they say they used the Panda 70M training set. It is a collection of publicly sourced video content and the plaintiffs claim their content is in it.

publicly sourced != public domain

I looked and it's probably this which is based on OpenAI

Of course they do. Apple Intelligence.

But even more broadly you can assume Apple is working on it if:

  1. It is in any way tech-related.
  2. It has the possibility of marketing existing technology as "magical" and easy to use.
