Maven, a new social network backed by OpenAI's Sam Altman, found itself in a controversy today when it imported a huge amount of posts and profiles from the Fediverse, and then ran AI analysis to alter the content.

Yeah, and girls dress for rape. They are just aaasking for it!

I will go off on a tangent.

Just because something is online it does not mean I give a full green light on anything.

Fuck this noise of social parasitic networks hammering free service therefore pay with data into everyone's skull. And everyone posts crap.

It is a billion dollar business. LLMs are extracting millions and will generate more.

You know why? Because worthless shit you post online is not worthless after all.

Yes, you are reading it right. Pay me. Pay us.

Before anyone ridicules this. Yall be defending billion dollar corporations, staffed with millionaires below C-levels.

People should start demanding money from these greedy assholes.

I don't think they're making a moral argument, but pointing out the reality of the situation as it stands.

This is a problem that can only be fixed through legislation and aggressive enforcement backed by large punitive actions.

Until that happens, it's better to acknowledge and understand the reality of the situation, than to believe that a morally righteous condemnation will somehow unmake that reality.

It sucks. I agree with your philosophical stance, except for the payment for personal data, as I'd prefer a complete opt-out. However, none of that changes where we're at right now.

A mild copyright violation based on a system designed around the constant distribution of copies of things is NOT a parable about sexual violence, people.

I feel like this extremely insensitive rape take is the fediverse's version of the Godwin Law.

ITT people not recognizing that there’s a difference between comparing and equating.

People, it’s possible to make analogies to more serious situations without saying the two things are equal. The statement above is saying it’s there’s a shared mentality, not a shared level of consequence/seriousness.

You're right but...

It's the same with open source products. Companies just take it, make billions off it, give nothing back, will try the embrace, enhance , extinguish tactics, will hide any GPL licensing because of course they would...

It'll happen anyway, and you can't stop it. Like you said, girls dress to rape is bullshit. But if a girl goes in a skimpy bikini in a Bombay bus at 9pm, then you're kind of asking for something. Open source is open for everyone, that is kind of the point, it's the reason why it became so big in the first place, but it WILL be abused because there are always abusers out there
