funny how thats copyright infringement but AI scraping isnt

The Archive strongly supports AI training being Fair Use. It has even advised the UK government to relax copyright laws to permit training. https://blog.archive.org/2025/02/26/internet-archive-submits-comments-in-uks-open-consultation-on-ai-and-copyright/
Some of the precedents won by AI companies offer great support for the Archive, but remember that they also had to pay up on occasion.
it can be fair use as long as it is open. OpenAi used to be a non-profit after all. As it stands now they can go fuck themselves as far as im concerned.
Why do you want it to work that way?
Cuz AI in the hands of a few is harmful (see elon musks grok he likes to tamper with) and I find it reprehensible to train AI on material that u steal and then paywall the result
It just seems odd to me, you know? AI in the hands of the few is harmful, but if they pay license fees, that can be allowed. Copyright infringement is theft, but it is acceptable if the result is shared freely. I don’t really see how that works.
