GRRM is worried AI will finish writing his books before him
We could teach ducks to write and they will finish before him.
Would you rather it was finished by 100 duck sized George RR Martins or a George RR Martin sized duck?
That’s a big duck.
Big duck energy
Since he will never finish the next book, then that’s very likely given infinite time :)
The authors added that OpenAI’s LLMs could result in derivative work “that is based on, mimics, summarizes, or paraphrases” their books, which could harm their market.
Ok, so why not wait until those hypothetical violations occur and then sue?
People can do that too, are they gonna sue all people?
I have nipples Greg, could you sue me?
Because the outcome of suing first is to address the potential outcome of what could happen based on what OenAI is doing right now. Kind of like how safety regulations are intended to prevent future problems based on what has happened previously, but expanded similar potential dangers instead of waiting for each exact scenario to happen.
But if OpenAI cannot legally be inspired by your work, the implication is humans can’t either.
It’s not how copyright works. Transformative work is transformative.
Because that is far harder to prove than showing OpenAI used his IP without permission.
In my opinion, it should not be allowed to train a generative model on data without permission of the rights holder. So at the very least, OpenAI should publish (references to) the training data they used so far, and probably restrict the dataset to public domain–and opt-in works for future models.
Okay, the problem is there are only about three companies with either enough data or enough money to buy it. Any open source or small time AI model is completely dead in the water. Since our economy is quickly moving towards being AI driven, it would basically guarantee our economy is completely owned by a handful of companies like Getty Images.
Any artist with less weight than GRR and Taylor Swift is still screwed, they might get a peanut or two at most.
I’d rather get an explosion of culture, even if it mean GRR doesn’t get a last fat paycheck and Hollywood loses control of its monopoly.
I get it. I download movies without paying for it too. It’s super convenient, and much cheaper than doing it the right thing.
But I don’t pretend it’s ethical. And I certainly don’t charge other people money to benefit from it.
Either there are plenty of people who are fine with their work being used for AI purposes (especially in a open source model), or they don’t agree to it - in which case it would be unethical to do so.
Just because something is practical, doesn’t mean it’s right.
There’s so much more at stake, it’s not remotely the same as pirating. AI is poised to take over any kind of job that requires only a computer and a telephone. I’d rather have robust open source options that a handful of companies exerting a subscription tax on half the economy.
Any overt legislation will only hurt us the consumer while 99.9% of the actual artists and contributers won’t see any benefit whatsoever.
Short of aggressively nationalizing any kind of AI endeavour, making it as free and accessible as possible is the best option imo.
When the movie about the nerds behind these apps comes out, this will be the part of the movie trailer where Jesse Eisenberg looks nervous and says he’s being sued for over a billion dollars.
And if AI writes it Walter White will appear and announce the need to cook. Then they’ll all melt for no reason.
it was at this moment walter white became a transformer
This is the best summary I could come up with:
According to the complaint, OpenAI “copied plaintiffs’ works wholesale, without permission or consideration” and fed the copyrighted materials into large language models.
The authors added that OpenAI’s LLMs could result in derivative work “that is based on, mimics, summarizes, or paraphrases” their books, which could harm their market.
OpenAI, the complaint said, could have trained GPT on works in the public domain instead of pulling in copyrighted material without paying a licensing fee.
This is the latest lawsuit against OpenAI from popular authors — Martin wrote Game of Thrones, Grisham’s many books have been turned into films, and so on — alleging copyright infringement.
Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay writer Michael Chabon and others sued the company for using their books to train GPT earlier in September.
Comedian Sarah Silverman and authors Christopher Golden and Richard Kadrey also sought legal action against OpenAI and Meta, while Paul Tremblay and Mona Awad filed their complaint in June.
The original article contains 323 words, the summary contains 157 words. Saved 51%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
I hope openAI wins and secures even more access to this stuff.
At least openAI can give us a good ending to the series
Not at the moment at least, if ever.
Certainly! Here’s a remix of the Game of Thrones ending with Top Gun themes and imagery:
Title: “Game of Thrones: Dragon Wing”
In the final episode of “Game of Thrones: Dragon Wing,” the power struggle for the Iron Throne takes a thrilling and high-flying turn. Daenerys Targaryen, now known as the “Dragon Queen,” leads her dragons into an epic aerial battle against the remaining claimants to the throne.
As the dragons soar through the skies of King’s Landing, the music swells with the iconic Top Gun soundtrack. Daenerys, riding her mighty dragon, “Firestorm,” takes on a persona reminiscent of Maverick from Top Gun, exuding confidence and charisma.
Jon Snow, on his own dragon, “Snowhawk,” plays the role of Iceman, a skilled and competitive rival to Daenerys. Their aerial duels are breathtaking and intense, echoing the dogfights of Top Gun.
Tyrion Lannister, known for his wit and strategic thinking, takes on the role of Viper, the wise and experienced mentor who guides the dragon riders through their challenges.
Arya Stark, with her newfound dragon-riding skills, becomes the “Wildcard,” executing daring and unconventional tactics during the battles, just like Maverick’s unpredictable maneuvers.
The final showdown takes place over the Red Keep, where the Iron Throne sits. In an explosive climax, Daenerys and Jon Snow face off in an aerial duel to determine who will rule the Seven Kingdoms. The dragon battle is a breathtaking mix of fire-breathing power and aerial acrobatics, set to the electrifying Top Gun soundtrack.
Ultimately, Daenerys emerges victorious, and she takes her place on the Iron Throne, symbolizing the triumph of courage and unity over political intrigue. The realm is finally united under her rule, and her fellow dragon riders, including Jon Snow, Tyrion, and Arya, stand by her side as loyal allies.
The series ends with a soaring shot of Daenerys and her dragons flying into the sunset, capturing the spirit of adventure and camaraderie found in Top Gun, while also providing a thrilling and satisfying conclusion to the Game of Thrones saga.
Here’s the new GOT theme for that final episode.
🎶 "Heading to the throne, Westeros unknown, Riding through the realm, claim it for your own. Fire and ice collide, in a dangerous zone, In the Game of Thrones, you’re on your own. 🎶
🎶 Welcome to the danger throne, Gather your allies, it’s time to dethrone. In the Game of Thrones, it’s power you seek, But in this deadly game, it’s the strong and the meek. 🎶
🎶 Ice and fire, dragons in the sky, Schemers and dreamers, oh, how they’ll vie. In the Game of Thrones, where the heroes fall, You’ll need to be fearless, or not at all. 🎶
🎶 Soaring on your dragon, through the stormy night, In the Game of Thrones, you’ll need all your might. Danger zone, it’s where you’ll reside, For the Iron Throne, you must decide. 🎶
🎶 Valyrian steel, and secrets untold, In this treacherous world, you’ll be brave and bold. In the Game of Thrones, there’s no turning back, In the danger zone, it’s a power-packed track. 🎶
🎶 Winter’s coming, and battles are near, In the Game of Thrones, who’ll you hold dear? In the danger zone, where legends are made, You’ll rise or you’ll fall in this epic crusade. 🎶
Okay, now do a coherent book with themes and plot that carry through out the whole book.
OK now create a book
I thought you were saying ai was able to create that final book with an ending? I guess not.
beautiful, this is the closure I needed thank you
