Text Mining vs Generative AI: Research Tool Distinction
By
–
That definition makes it clear TDM is intended as research tool, intended to produce only statistics, not extract expressions into a neural database. There is a qualitative difference in ML being used for mere analysis and research, and ML being used for generative applications!

TDM Definition and Legislative Intent in AI Regulation
By
–
I think there's a strong argument for this, based on definition of TDM which is "analysis" and "analytical" only (which imply no downstream uses except "research") — nothing to do with reproducing inputs or automating labour. But it does go against the intuition of legislators.

Human bias affects model’s count of R’s in strawberry
By
