Natürlich halten die Nachfahren europäischer Invasoren, die sich das Land im fremden #Amerika einfach unter den Nagel rissen und die indigene Bevölkerung nahezu auslöschten, den Diebstahl geistigen Eigentums für #FairUse. Sie sprechen sich selbst das Recht dafür einfach zu. Sie besaßen damals keinen #Anstand, wer soll es ihnen also beigebracht haben? #KI #USA

I really hope so, but I'm not going to count my chickens yet.
"How influential the latest appeals court ruling will be is debatable. The court found that Ross had effectively copy-pasted Thomson Reuters’ “headnotes,” or brief editorial summaries of legal issues, verbatim for its legal search engine, a practice that isn’t difficult to separate from fair use."

News Summary: AI Survey Reveals Deep Divide Among Writers
It’s been a week or so since we had news of a new survey. As this is an AI-related survey, it also provides the opportunity to roll our AI stories for the week into a single column (assuming, of course, nothing else breaks in the next few days. Which is, I’ll admit, a big assumption).

This AI fair use thing and the motives of @eff are turning out to be a lot more complicated. I'm starting to understand the position of EFF. I maintain that I'm very much not a fan of the way EFF is approaching it in the public or coming to the defense of AI companies but there may well be a "gotcha" moment laying in wait.
This article really sheds some light on the issues:

US government argues that fair use applies to OpenAI’s training of LLMs in key copyright caseHistorically, legislation and court decisions have always lagged behind technological change. But the gap between the two is even starker in the world of generative AI. The large language model (LLM) that kicked things off, ChatGPT, was only released in November 2022; the pace of development since then has been dizzying. Meanwhile, nearly 200 lawsuits have been brought against AI companies, […]

The DOJ’s AI Fair Use Brief Is Correct, But From A DOJ That Has No Credibility

Copyright has limitations and it's about time these limitations are respected. This is the wrong fight to start with AI companies. Copyright is just another form of rent extraction.
"In 2023, The New York Times sued OpenAI—and its largest investor, Microsoft—for "systematic and competitive infringement," accusing the companies of illegally using copyrighted material to develop their AI models. After other publishers filed their own lawsuits, the cases were consolidated last year in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
On Tuesday, the Justice Department sent a statement of interest arguing the Times' position is "inconsistent with basic copyright law principles" and could "severely hamper 'the Progress of Science and useful Arts.'" Training AI models on copyrighted material "in and of itself," the administration says, is not a violation of copyright laws.
Section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976 outlines the conditions of "fair use," which allows anyone to use unlicensed copyright-protected works for criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
The Justice Department contends that any use by the AI companies should be considered fair use for a transformative purpose. The Times has rejected this argument, declaring there is nothing transformative about using its content "without payment to create products that substitute for The Times and steal audiences away from it." The outlet claims that OpenAI's generative AI models "compete with and closely mimic the inputs used to train them," nullifying the fair use exemption for its copyrighted works.
Tori Noble, staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, disagrees. She says training AI models on copyrighted works is "squarely what transformative use is." These are "general purpose tools" and "exactly the kind of creation that copyright is designed to foster," Noble adds."

U.S. Department of Justice Files Legal Brief Urging Court to Find AI Training to Be Fair Use

U.S. Textbook Authors Sue OpenAI for Copyright Infringement
If AI companies are allowed to “continually update their content by ingesting new editions of textbooks as they come out," instructors and schools may consider dropping textbook adoptions altogether in favor of “substitutes” that rely on the use of LLM models, the suit argues.
