- Nick Clegg, former Meta executive and UK Deputy Prime Minister, has reiterated a familiar line when it comes to AI and artist consent.
- He said that any push for consent would “basically kill” the AI industry.
- Clegg added that the sheer volume of data that AI is trained on makes it “implausible” to ask for consent.

I’m ok with “ai” dying
AI is not just limited to these overhyped plagiarism machines. Will consent laws kill vision systems? Will they kill classifiers? Will they kill gradient descent? No, they won’t.
Pure entitlement mindset.
If your business is not able to stay afloat while providing fair compensation to those whose labor is used, whether employee, co-owner, or third-party, you are not entitled to keep running it. Society doesn’t have a duty to prop up wealthy thieves.

I’m not a fan of intellectual property law. I’m down to abandon it, once we establish an artist stipend to pay a regular salary for artists to live a life of dignity.
Maybe introduce a tax on AI to pay for it.
yeah a 110% tax
If I ran the zoo, then any AI that trained on intellectual property as if it were public domain would automatically become public domain itself.
That’s the only correct take
How did the media industey call pirates? Parasites?
“Don’t copy that floppy” funded by rich people, or the more recent “You wouldn’t download” with pirated song and font. Fucking hypocrites.
That’s a myth. The music was licenced, as was the font.
Bank robbers say laws against bank robbery will kill bank robbery.
Also Clegg
asking women for permission would ruin my sexlife.
probably.

I can hear this picture
Indeed. Simply that. If a business is not sustainable without breaking the law, it is not a business, it’s a criminal organisation.
Yes please.

Good, I think it should be killed.
AI or the music industry?
AI. Rich people trying to change the law to get richer via shady means is a huge no from me every time.
Yes
