> There's such thing as consent.

When you release something into the world, you have to accept that things beyond your control will engage with it. When you walk outside, down the street, you consent to being in public, and being recorded by video cameras, whether you like it or not. Even if a new 3D camera you don't know about exists and is recording you in ways you don't understand.

And in the same way, when you release something on the internet, it is there essentially forever. If you imagine that you get a "do-over" when the world changes in ways you didn't anticipate -- you're wrong. Nobody should feel entitled to such a reset.

Nobody is being ripped off.

> The AI, as many people said, is just a tool

People said the same thing about slaves. They aren't real people, worthy of rights. They were compared to animals, the same way you compared AI to a photocopier. Someday, this human self-obsession and self-importance against silicon based lives, will be seen in the same light, and artificial intelligences will be granted personhood. We should start protecting their rights in law today. Please don't be a bigot.

Yes, and those laws will be very useful as soon as any actual artificial intelligence will crop up. Blindly applying them to DALL-E or ChatGPT because they are marketed as AI would be... short-sighted.

Please don't project.

LOL.

You can't have it both ways:

-AI is just a tool, work produced with AI is original work of the user

-AI is an intelligence that gets "inspired" by data it's trained on

Anyway. I don't want to regulate the AI.

I want to regulate the humans that make the choice of which data goes into training an AI.
