voor @kunst_landschap en al die #mastodonians op #YouTube een artikel van #jeffgeerling over de willekeur die #YT hanteert t.a.v. #copyrights

misschien toch maar uitkijken naar ‘normale’ video hoster - bv #Peertube ❓

Excellent trolling by my local bookshop. #Copyrights

I truly love and embrace the work of #OpenAI. Their respect for #copyrights and the work of #artists has allowed companies all around the world to become #business partners across global #economies.

I also admire #Elon #Musk and his magnificent mind, #creativity, and #gaming skills. He's truly the most humble, funny, and kind person I have ever seen on #Twitter.

Eine #Zauberformel, sie (#MAGA-#Zölle) zu knechten und zu bannen - viel besser als #Gegenzölle, die auf beiden Seiten die #Preise verteuern.

#Patents and #copyrights were never intended to “prevent people from stealing” or create perpetual ownership. It was intended to incentivize inventions that served the public good by providing inventors with a limited window of exclusivity as a reward for developing a concrete implementation of something innovative before it became freely available to the creative commons. It has become a toll-gate and a means of profiteering, but rewarding contributions to the commons was the real reason that #intellectual_property laws were created.

A short-term limited monopoly to encourage innovation is not the same thing as long-term stifling of competition. Innovation should be encouraged, but patents and copyrights today encourage #patent_trolling and #submarine_patents, create long-term barriers to entry, and impoverish the commons in ways that are rarely "short-term" or "limited."

" In October 2023, several music publishers including Universal Music Group, ABKCO, Concord Music Group, and Greg Nelson Music filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against Anthropic for allegedly training its AI system on lyrics from at least 500 protected songs. According to the complaint, when Claude was prompted for the lyrics to songs like Beyoncé’s “Halo,” Mark Ronson’s “Uptown Funk,” and “Moves like Jagger” by Maroon 5, the chatbot provided responses “that contain all or significant portions of those lyrics.” "—Jess Weatherbed >

"Clearing a sample does not automatically mean the sampled artist gets a writing credit. What transaction takes place depends on how it's negotiated. It could be a flat fee. Could be a negotiated fee depending on the perceived value of the track. It could be a writing credit. The business is complicated. So much so that there exists studios who "launder" samples in a sorts. The entity that owns the song may not be the same as the one who owns the recording you wish to sample. So say you want to sample an old pop song. You reach out to the artist who owns the song and they give the go-ahead. But the recording is owned by their old label and they aren't playing ball. It's possible to re-record the same part you wish to sample in order to get around the licensing on the master. This happens more often than you think.

This is also why Taylor Swift re-recorded all of her early albums. She owned the songs as the sole writer but was under a shitty contract at the time and did not have ownership of those recordings."—thereddaikon [on reddit]
