Defending giant corporations profiting off of uncompensated individuals, while criticizing anyone who doesn't want to provide free labor to said corporations, is a disgusting take. Are you a CEO?
The more accessible training data there is the easier it is for new AI projects to enter the field less dominant those "giant corporations" become.
The free labour was already freely given. If someone doesn't want to have shitposted on Reddit for free then maybe they shouldn't have shitposted on Reddit for free.
"if you didn't want me to steal your intellectual property, you shouldn't have thought of it in the first place"
I'm not sure what you mean here. Nothing's being stolen. Even if you think there needs to be permission for training an AI off of data, Reddit has that permission.
I assume you're more of a moron than a troll, which is disappointing. Regardless, you're not worth my time, as I don't think any argument could convince you to have an open mind and be willing to change. Good luck out there!
