It feels like we've just taken our first steps down the path of the Robin Williams acted movie 'Bicentennial Man' timeline.

Our ancient legal system trying to lend itself to "protecting authors" is fucking absurd. AI is the future. Are we really going to let everyone take a shot suing these guys over this crap? Its a useful program and infrastructure for everyone.

Holding technology back for antiquated copyright law is downright absurd.

Edit: I want to add that I'm not suggesting copyright should be a free for all on your books or hard work, but rather that this is a computer program and a major breakthrough, and in the same way that if I read a book no one sues my brain for consumption I don't think we should sue an AI: it is not reproducing books. In the same manner that many footnotes websites about books do not reproduce a book by summarizing their content. With the contingency that until Open AI does not have an event where their reputation has to be re-evaluated (IE this is subject to change if they start trying to reproduce books).

Lol, oh my gosh guys, it's true. This is a (error ridden) line from dobby.

Edit: I'm sorry, but I can't stop laughing. This is amazing. I can't stop... I won't stop.
