Is it really pirating if the books are checked out from a public library and the AI just reads them? Whose fault is it if the AI remembers everything and can be trained to understand?/
IBMs Watson was trained to be a medical computer by reading all the articles in medical journals and incorporating all the information to give "just as good" if not better diagnoses than human doctors. Is that pirating?
The biggest (((complainers))) of all this "pirating" is the stupid copyright industry that feels that better writing is a threat to human authors, especially since computer created works do not fall under copyright, and with the AI improving enough to actually detect AI works, any "human" authors spitting out books using AI can be stripped of copyright.
The additional threat is that AI generated content can be personalized on a local model and there may not be a need to buy books anymore.
Nonsense. Even a "strong AI" in the traditional futurist concept would blunder constantly when presented with scenarios outside its training data. A genuinely intelligent machine or distributed network of machines which, for example, understood strategy and warfare as we know them today, would be instantly obsolete the moment a novel technology or tactic were deployed.
The notion of a hyper-adaptive artificial sentience that can analyse and effectively master any new technology or concept instantly is the same type of sci fi that describes miniature cold fusion power plants allowing humans to fly through the stratosphere with just a wrist watch. Mathematically speaking it's possible, but the physical solution has yet to even be dreamed of, let alone have a basis in today's technology.
You seem to be speaking from the understood viewpoint of a large language model (LLM), not a real artificial general intelligence (AGI). An LLM is a predictive text model, they are what we're allowed to have and play with. Real, AGI, if is possible, would be a monumental trade secret and gives a ridiculous technical advantage to the owner. Even advanced LLM's can produce generalizations and can be coaxed into creating novel expression.
what if sites like the internet archive was a knowlege base for ai's? there is a lot of communist content on there. it looks like they are giving ai the same education they give american children.

We won't see the good stuff until it's too late.
