@pluralistic @jwz @eff @mozilla It's a copyrights issue though, right? As in whether the "Fair use" exception applies as much to a billion $ company training a for-profit model as it does to a human reading an article to "learn" something?

@pluralistic @jwz @eff @mozilla Interesting, but based on whatever I have read about "Fair Use", I don't find this convincing. https://copyrightalliance.org/faqs/what-is-fair-use/

@pluralistic @jwz @eff @mozilla Your article is focusing on memorization, but the contention is about copying and use. 0.000033% figure is not really relevant because Midjourney made copies of all the pixels from images (before analyzing them).

@pluralistic @jwz @eff @mozilla See the factor #4 again. Search engines respected robots.txt (thus were explicitly permitted) and increased the traffic to the work itself. Therefore, they did not hurt the potential market for the work.

It's not the right comparison at all.

@pluralistic @jwz @eff @mozilla RIAA is now suing Suno and Udio arguing copyright infringement on the same lines as what I wrote. Guess we'll know soon:

Is there a free / / host that would let me create accounts in bulk and run some automated feeds through them without considering it abuse?

Has anyone built something like "Login with / " as social login / oauth identity? perhaps?

@dansup Amazing! But I don't see "Sign-in with Mastodon" option during login at https://pixelfed.social/login the way this article mentions. Also, is it restricted to Mastodon's primary instance or any server running Mastodon software?
