Where they get absolutely roasted for their stance on AI πŸ˜„

Their correct stance that copyright doesn't protect rights holders from training AI on content scraped legally.

Maybe, but their stance on AI does suck.

[–] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What is their stance on AI?

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Copyright doesn’t protect from training on data that was scraped legally.

Which is exactly the stance I would expect from EFF, since their primary goal is an open and free internet. Scraping is a normal activity if you ascribe to that ethos.

Only stupid people support copyright and patent laws.

Y'all remind me of Republicans asking if the actors in a movie are Democrats before they decide whether or not to watch it. Give it a rest.

Promoting it with...a Twitch stream.

[–] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 83 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You have to meet your audience where they are at. Twitch makes a lot of sense and has a lot of reach.

[–] artyom@piefed.social 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You can reach your audience from a variety of channels. At least one of them should be free. This should be seeringly obvious to an org like EFF.

A doctor must go where the sick people are.

[–] lambalicious@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That ended in like, the 1700s. We have hospitals now.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Believe it or not, there are sick people in hospitals.

[–] lambalicious@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah. That's half the point of them!
