> We have copyright and intellecual property law already, of course, but those were designed presuming a human might try to profit from the intellectual labor of others. With AI, we're in the industrial era of the digital world. Now a single corporation can train an AI using someone's copyrighted work and in return profit off the knowledge over and over again at industrial scale.

The idea that copyright simply doesn't apply to AI has more to do with AI companies deciding that they're not going to comply with those laws than the design of the laws. Also a very successful lobby against enforcement by positioning AI as a strategic necessity.

Gotta be a sunk cost thing right?

If they wanted to do that they'd probably not try to draw this much attention.

Suppose we each backed up sites we cared about rather than trying to mirror the whole thing...

I keep wanting to do this for old sites, make like a personal mini IA. Besides just using wget or curl, any tips for pulling down useable complete websites from IA?

His bunker kinda tells me all I need to know.

For testing shaders you can use the editor, at least.

Would you then say that in general Open Source doesn't matter for almost everyone? Most people running Linux aren't serving 700 million customers or operating military killbots with it after all.

I'm very interested in something like archive box but:

* Can also download Internet Archive snapshots

* Suitable for (read only) exposure to the open Internet, or saves sites as static content that you could host easily by slapping it into an Nginx or Apache directory.

Is it the tool for the job?

Somehow both things are true, and I don't know how we disentangle them.

YouTube the site where people can dump videos is incredibly useful because there are visual tutorials for everything.

YouTube the site where people form parasocial relationships with flat-earth-fluencers and break their brains is the worst invention since leaded gasoline.

It's a shibboleth for the Rationalist community, that's why.

For them, content is free.

That's a pretty fair characterization of the Roko's Basilisk crowd though, isn't it?
