Good news for #AI! If you can afford glasses for several hundred dollars, you too can become a servant data collector for the #Meta surveillance machine. You may just not be able to turn it off. It's good for you. The data is needed to #SaveTheAI.

Judge on Meta’s AI training: “I just don’t understand how that can be fair use” https://arstechni.ca/2jJYz #copyrightinfringement #AItraining #torrenting #copyright #leeching #fairuse #Policy #piracy #LLaMA #meta
This is interesting. Authors are suing #Meta for training its #AI on their works. #AIEthics #DataEthics #copyright arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Judge on Meta’s AI training: “...

Aber gut, wer Dienste von #Meta nutzt, dem ist eh nicht zu helfen 🤣
"In the Patel interview, Zuckerberg cites a statistic “from working on social media for a long time” that “the average American has fewer than three friends, fewer than three people they would consider friends. And the average person has demand for meaningfully more. I think it's something like 15 friends or something.” The closest source I could find where he could be pulling this statistic from is a study commissioned by virtual therapy company Talkspace in 2024, which specifically surveyed men, and found that men have five “general” friends, three close friends and two best friends, on average.
Zuckerberg goes on to say:
“But the average person wants more connection than they have. There's a lot of concern people raise like, ’Is this going to replace real-world, physical, in-person connections?’ And my default is that the answer to that is probably not. There are all these things that are better about physical connections when you can have them. But the reality is that people just don't have as much connection as they want. They feel more alone a lot of the time than they would like.”
He said he thinks things like AI companions have a “stigma” around them now, but that society will eventually “find the vocabulary” to describe why people who turn to chatbots for socialization are “rational” for doing so.
His view of real-world connections seems to have shifted a lot in recent years, after lighting billions of dollars on fire for a failed metaverse gambit. Patel asked Zuckerberg about his role as CEO, and he said—among things like managing across projects and infrastructure—that he sees his place in the company as a tastemaker. “Then there's this question around taste and quality. When is something good enough that we want to ship it? In general, I'm the steward of that for the company,” he said. "

The thesis that each unauthorized use of a copyrighted work amounts to a lost sale going down the drain...
"At times, it sounded like the case was the authors’ to lose, with Chhabria noting that Meta was “destined to fail” if the plaintiffs could prove that Meta’s tools created similar works that cratered how much money they could make from their work. But Chhabria also stressed that he was unconvinced the authors would be able to show the necessary evidence. When he turned to the authors’ legal team, led by high-profile attorney David Boies, Chhabria repeatedly asked whether the plaintiffs could actually substantiate accusations that Meta’s AI tools were likely to hurt their commercial prospects. “It seems like you’re asking me to speculate that the market for Sarah Silverman’s memoir will be affected,” he told Boies. “It’s not obvious to me that is the case.”
When defendants invoke the fair use doctrine, the burden of proof shifts to them to demonstrate that their use of copyrighted works is legal. Boies stressed this point during the hearing, but Chhabria remained skeptical that the authors’ legal team would be able to successfully argue that Meta could plausibly crater their sales. He also appeared lukewarm about whether Meta’s decision to download books from places like LibGen was as central to the fair use issue as the plaintiffs argued it was. “It seems kind of messed up,” he said. “The question, as the courts tell us over and over again, is not whether something is messed up but whether it’s copyright infringement.”
A ruling in the Kadrey case could play a pivotal role in the outcomes of the ongoing legal battles over generative AI and copyright."

Meta ( allegedly ) tried to hire 3D artists to justify in court that 3D art is apparently so easy and quick to make, that it is uncopyrightable, so they could not ask for permission from 3D artists for training their AI.

Reading "Careless People" by Sarah Wynn-Williams and wow, however bad I thought Facebook management was... they're worse. That they went out of their way to silence the author, well... kind of like... lends some weight to her claims.
Pretty neat to see how easy it is to add Locomotion with Microgestures in Meta XR Interaction SDK, literally 2-3 clicks to get it all setup.
