What happened in 2004?

🙄

You don’t need an LLM to find and copy GPL code. The LLM isn’t adding anything new here.

Who is wholesale copying OSS code and releasing it under a non-compliant license with an LLM?

create my own code with the knowledge gained from your code

Not copy your code. Use it to learn what algorithms it uses and ideas on how to implement it.

Churches have a statue of a man being tortured to death on a cross prominently placed within them. So it’s kinda on brand.

Also - this conclusion is ridiculous:

By incorporating copyleft data into their models, the LLMs do share the work - but not alike. Instead, the AI strips the work of its provenance and transforms it to be copyright free.

That is absolutely not true. It doesn’t remove the copyright from the original work and no court has ruled as such.

If I wrote a “random code generator” that just happened to create the source code for Microsoft Windows in entirety it wouldn’t strip Microsoft of its copyright.

Yes. And this is kinda hand-wavy bullshit.

By incorporating copyleft data into their models, the LLMs do share the work - but not alike. Instead, the AI strips the work of its provenance and transforms it to be copyright free.

That’s not how it works. Your code is not “incorporated” into the model in any recognizable form. It trains a model of vectors. There isn’t a file with your for loop in there though.

I can read your code, learn from it, and create my own code with the knowledge gained from your code without violating an OSS license. So can an LLM.

If you put a fucking sign on your door saying “come on in!” then don’t be angry when people do?

Well, many Schemers love the language

Neat. Everyone else hates it. Not dislikes, not “can deal with it”. But hates it.)))))))))))))) ))))))))))))))

Of course it should.

But it’s also very regulated regardless.

Tcp/ip packets don’t have timestamps. They wouldn’t be reliable even if they did. And they certainly wouldn’t be “millisecond accurate”.

Requires FDA approval for cannabis products (hello, Big Pharma!)

It’s literally a drug and should absolutely require FDA approval. Preferably by one with competent leadership, but either way.

I believe these were the assholes behind Trump on camera while he shout-whined at America for not loving him more.

destroy the bargain that made free software spread like wildfire

If you didn’t want your code to be used by others then don’t make it open source.

A good guy with a gun.

I ran a fairly popular RTCW server back in the day… Insta-gib and sniper rifles only. Good times.

When you accidentally self immolate while being a racist.

Does he even have any psychiatric tests? I can’t see him submitting to such a thing.

And no - his competency tests don’t count.

Why is it bad advice to give men the means to control their reproduction without any outside party involvement?

Because your advice is “naturalistic” shit. It’s not only famously unreliable at controlling pregnancies but it also offers zero protection from STDs.
