leave the poor guy alone he is super busy learning taekwonleap
Methinks he may need a boot to the head! XD
can just create big pile of training data that's free from copyright.
IMO hyper-focusing on copyright *status* this way doesn't make sense. If a work is created anywhere where copyright is automatic, it';s copyrighted regardless of the licensing or lack thereof. If we focus on making "using copyrighted works" itself wrong OR illegal (OR both) you'd kill off the ability to use works where the creators either gave explicit permission, or implicit permission through use of the appropriate Creative Commons license for instance, to use for training, which doesn't make sense to me.
TL;DR: Don't focus on copyright status alone, IMO focusing on licensing or lack thereof AND / OR whether licensing is needed for training makes more sense.
Allowing unlicensed works without permission would be a de facto donation of the trademark to public domain.
That's gonna need a big citation, bud - your logic would have meant that LucasFilm would not own Star Wars, SEGA Wouldn't own Sonic, VALVe wouldn't own Portal, TF2, HALF-LIFE, etc, Hasbro wouldn't own Dungeons and Dragons, My Little Pony, Magic the Gathering, etc, since those companies have a lot of permissiveness regarding fan made work. Something smells really wrong with this claim.
Write an algorithm that detects it (tricky but doable)
Definitely tricky - current "AI detection" is IMO inconsistent-to-dogshit in terms of accuracy, then there is issue of counter-measures being useds to train smarter systems that try to beat them.
70% was just sitting there idle
Citation needed? (Not being used by one proces =/= idle, the OS utilizing memory and other processes, you know, running are things). I question how many repeating this crap even sat through a computer operating system design class.
explain why it's OK to violate copyright to a judge.
To be fair, it'd be an allegation of infringement if they go that route - am I misunderstanding it though in thinking it's more like YT is talking about a breach of contract angle?
If I have RAM to spare, go ahead and use it.
Or, it should take when it needs it, and not force the OS to clean up after avoidable sloppines wherever it may be present in a user level application.
Users shouldn't have to care about micromanaging memory these days.
Maybe if they had more trust - irrespective of if the distrust being expressed is completely justified or not - they wouldn't feel the need. Either way, more options IMO is good.
You close some tabs
Or just buy more RAM.
Or... how about those being potential options AND allowing people to have granular control over how a program behaves with the rest of the system?
If God had not given us sticky tape, it would have been necessary to invent it.
