"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

That's not random Github accounts or "delicensing" anything. People had to opt IN to be part of "The Stack". Apertus isn't training itself from community code.
I'm tired of arguing with you about this, and you're still wrong. It was opt-out, not opt-in, based initially on a GitHub crawl of 137M repos and 52B files before filtering & dedup.
But again, you'd have to set your project to public and your license to "anyone can take my code and do whatever they want with it" before it'd be even added to that list. That's opt-in, not opt-out. I don't see the ethical dilemma here. I'm pretty sure I've found ethical AI, that produces good value for me and society, and I'm going to keep telling people about it and how to use it.
