CBS does plan to offer its own form of live fact-checking β€” but it will be online, rather than directly from the moderators, via its CBS News Confirmed Unit journalists in an online blog.

So the attention of the viewer is divided or they don't even know that there is an online live fact check.

Sounds more than fishy

It's easy to flip flop when you don't have a spine or are snide.

They really outdid themselves with that cover art :D

but its just a photocopy of the leaves, not the actual leaves. And to photograph something, you capture it according to your will. What will be the light situation, from which angle, at what focal length,... so many options.

because it was an expression of his creativity.

yeaaaah no chief, that ain't it.

You can copyright a combination of words, though, and it was his unique combination that created the art

so its literature, then?

The artist doesn’t copyright the palette, and the shop that sold the pigments holds no ownership over the painting.

Sure, the artist doesn't copyright a palette, or the shop does not hold ownership of pigments. But Companies do patent pigments.

If the art is created with paint, pixels, or phrase, the final product belongs to the artist, and so should be protected by law for them.

If you commission an Art piece, with a detailed description of what it should display. The artist comes back to you with a draft, you tell them to adjust here and there, and you finally after several rounds of drafting got the commissioned art piece. Did you draw it?

Thats what LLMs do and nothing else.

Let's look at music. If a musician loses their arms and can no longer play an instrument, but instead dictates the chords to someone else to play, who is the artist? Who can claim ownership of the piece?

Then that musician becomes the composer who can copyright the sheet music. The one who plays the chords becomes the performing artist and can copyright the performance.

Spoken like someone who has never used an LLM before and thinks it magically produces exactly what you want on the first time, every time.

I have used LLMs extensively, several versions and types. I know how that shit works. And no I do not think that its results are deterministic and accurate.

Mine is that the tool is the LLM, and that when art is created with it, it should be open to copyright.

The LLM is the "artist" as it produces the image. And you can't claim copyright for someone else.

In the case of someone saying I want a song that is ABAG, and they ask that it be written down because they cannot write it down themselves

Then we are again in a commissioner situation. The guy who commissioned a composer to write them a song according to their specifications.

In regards to your bucket of paint.

That's an art installation which you can copyright. The resulting artwork on the canvas can't be.

I would not be qualified to talk to Hirst or a dead painter. They would have to take it with the Copyright law.

Yeah have a good one as well.

Wouldn't that be enough for a Defamation case against those scrooges?

Depends. Do you mean the Android Day-Ta? Or you mean the Information Unit Datah.

Not releasing in Japan because of Nintendo I assume?

Same

In the same way, the company that created the LLM may protect their work

What does the company protect here? The system, or the model? Which the latter being ill-gotten by scraping already copyrighted content?

Who drew the art is of no import when the artist isn't a sentient lifeform

It was an allegory. The supposed artist is the commissioner and the LLM being the artist. And since you can't copyright something you didn't made, well tough luck getting copyright on AI slop.

By your definition, a photographer cannot own a picture because the camera captured it.

No, because as a photographer you hold the tool in your hand. You can adjust everything, even the subject. And its all in your own control and it takes your skill in managing it to shoot the perfect photo.

If we would take your interpretation of my definition, then nobody can own anything since they always have to use a tool to create something.

Gatekeeping? Nah, it's not as it's quite easy for AI Bros to pick up a pencil. Nobody, except disabilities, stops them.

And yeah AI slop has become so well that rabid people are accusing actual artists that their art was made by AI. But why is that? Certainly not because their previous art was trained on...

Fuck AI. It is used to replace actual humans and human creativity.

Benny just can't help him.

That would be me

How to demonstrate that you are against democracy in one simple step.

her sentence absolutely should have been reduced further as that asshole not just raped but trafficked her, this is only fair for her to delete his ass.

The sentence that ass would have got would never ever bring her any justice.

A bigot nepo kid hosts a wierd sexist fascist convicted felon with tiny hands. Caveat is, that both are big fans of each other so there won't be any hardball questions, maybe they suck each others dick?

How come only those two companies build those medical devices?

How come Scientology can fuck with them like that?

Why do we still have religion and cults in positions of power?

So you aren't allowed to state an observation because some fucktards will take it the wrong way and spin it into anti-semitism?

Fuck the right wing. They think they follow those agendas of hate for a good cause, but all they do is destroy the good in all of us.

I don't see how children were abused in this case? It's just AI imagery.

It's the same as saying that people get killed when you play first person shooter games.

Or that you commit crimes when you play GTA.
