Stop Selling Generative AI Hype: Reality Check
By
–
If what you are doing is effectively finding ways to go back to the parts of the original documents that are relevant that is fine. This is, again, not "generative AI". Please stop selling the hype.

Sorry, when you say "associated contexts" do you mean it's showing you the region of the document that the string was found in? If so, fine. If not: don't use synthetic text in journalism. It is not factual. It is not information. And it undermines everything you are doing.

–
This is correct. The stock photo companies are not officially licensing Copyright to the AI companies (Shutterstock → OpenAI) because that would be admitting that copyright is necessary, which AI companies want to deny. The licensing is, for example, high-quality data.

AI Training Data Liability and Stock Photography Market Disruption
By

Oh, there's a case of liabilities for sure. If they let in random stuff, they don't know the origins. If they do it with their own models trained on their own data, they know exactly what went in. I don't see traditional stock photography surviving beyond dataset licensing.
