For artists that maintain their own website, this development is worth taking notice of rslstandard.org 💪
I might test it after October is over. As you all know, I am a bit busy drawing right now 😄 github.com/Jameswlepage...

Ars Technica has a good article discussing RSL
This need to get adopted industry wide.
RSL: a license for your web site, get AI scrapers to pay you or stop scraping.
A new #licensingstandard, #ReallySimpleLicensing (#RSL), aims to allow #webpublishers to set terms for #AI companies using their content. Supported by major brands like Reddit and Yahoo, RSL builds upon the existing #robotstxt protocol, enabling #publishers to specify #licensing and #royaltyterms for #AItraining data. https://www.theverge.com/news/775072/rsl-standard-licensing-ai-publishing-reddit-yahoo-medium?eicker.news #tech #media #news
RSL is the missing layer for the AI era: set terms, get attribution, and get paid (per crawl or per inference). Open standard, collective leverage. If AI uses your work, it should respect your license. Time to take control.

『「Really Simple Licensing（RSL）」は、 生成AIのトレーニングデータを収集するクローラーに対する利用条件をウェブパブリッシャーが設定できるというもので、ウェブサイトの「robots.txt」ファイルに追記するだけで利用できる。これを用いれば、生成AIのクローラーがコンテンツを巡回するごとに支払うべき料金といったライセンスも設定できることから、AIスクレイピングによってクリエイターは報酬を得やすくなる』
『すでにReddit、Yahoo、Quora、Mediumなどの大手が賛同を表明』
