Yeah, but we also lose to china by not having child labor. We want to lose battles that are against our morals – that’s what it means to have morals. Besides, it would also be illegal to use chinese ai models in the states that infringe copyright.
I love how copyright isn’t a problem when it’s the little people having it leveraged against them by megacorps.
But now that the little people are leveraging it against the megacorps – oh, I guess copyright was a mistake now. It wasn’t meant to protect the people, it was meant to protect the richest.
Disgraceful. I love the EFF but this is a huge miss. Copyright is the only thing protecting creatives from a corporate driven slop fest, and consumers would be hurt by this too with lower quality higher quantity trash.
Yes, but also their cars are ugly and they were riding high on musk’s cult of personality in the first place.
Rivians are better anyway.
This is nearly the plot to Ghost in the Shell 2 Innocence. Nearly the keyword, they might get there eventually.
The best path forward is that developers make their linux drivers before they release their hardware to the market. You know, like what they do for windows.
There’s no silver bullet here. You have to wait for someone to reverse engineer the drivers if the developers of the hardware don’t care enough to supply even basic linux driver support. Either that or linux becomes so popular that it becomes senseless to ignore it (let’s be real though, MacOS is popular enough for this to be true and yet there’s still new hardware made that ignores that platform too.)
So you’re telling me that I should just add the word trans to my code a shit ton to opt my code out of AI training?
The windows kernel isn’t all that great, particularly in the realm of memory security or scheduling.
You know, to each their own. Question is really whether windows maintaining a closed source kernel even makes sense from a maintenance burden perspective when it really doesn’t give them much money in return. (Most of their money in 2025 comes from cloud services, not operating systems)
