[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 9077076, member: 6795602"] Argh! I can't stay away. So if the artists and writers win the legal battle and AI cannot be 'trained' on content posted on social media without permission, will that potentially have any other repercussions for other software and content uses. Say screenscrape technologies? Webcrawler technologies? Etc? Websites themselves are just as much 'art' as images or literature. ScreenScraping and WebCrawling likely involve copying as much data from art (websites) as the AI generation technologies do. Any concerns there? For example: Should a website owner be able to tell Bing, sorry but we signed an exclusive contract with google and so they are the only ones that get to list anything directly from our site in their search results and even training your indexer from our website (websites are art) is illegal. Cease and Desist these activities immediately! [/QUOTE]
