That's fucking crazy. Anyone notice how AI has only made everything shittier?
It's automating the enshittification. A large language model doesn't need to sleep and doesn't have a conscience.
AI as we know it now is, in a nut shell, the automation of "I was just following orders". Or a digital factory line of evil. Either way, this is about removing the human element from as many decisions as possible.
It would be tricky, unethical, and in some cases illegal to get people to do the sort of things the owner class and fascists want to do to society. But it's easy to let an AI program go nuts. The cruelty is the point in the case of the fascists. And in the case of the owner class it clears out anyone who couldn't afford a lawyer.
Why develop and create something in a vacuum when you can beta test it on everyone.
AI is a great tool. But tools need to still be handled by humans. AI should compile a list of sites "infringing" and this list should be checked by a human. There always should be a human filter with all AI uses. Cool, let your stuff be written by AI but check what is written and fix weird or wrong shit. Have the meat be done by AI and the details by humans.
If a copyright bot makes false DMCA notices, the programmers should be held responsible as if they sent out the notices. That's how we'd handle it for any other crime.
yes, maybe AI winter was a good thing
It's really just the DMCA.
This kind of faultless takedown shouldn't be legal, but the DMCA carved it out decades ago.
