Moved over from Reddit after the API debacle. Most interested in news communities, while being in favor of popular self-determination and against the use and propagation of generative AI.

  • One of the freedoms of free software is that people can study it and use it however they want, for whatever purpose they want.

    Given that Anthropic and OpenAI derive their profits from their models being closed source rather than open source, I don’t think they should be assisted in devouring freely-accessible data in their endeavor.

    Not all developers may see it this way, but those contributing code to LLMs are training them for free at the expense of career opportunities for fellow developers, all the while Anthropic, OpenAI, and other AI companies rake in money for maintaining access to content that isn’t theirs.
