Let me quote your post back to you:

I can't help wondering what Gabe's real opinion on this leak might be. There is probably a lot of stuff in the leak that Valve cannot legally publish.

News Teslas have lithium ion 12 batteries.

Brilliant response. But what he's saying is true. OpenAI was sued, and the judge said: There can be only one copy of the book, digital or not. Destroy the book after scanning, and it's legal. The *judge* has *forced* companies to destroy books they scan, for it to be legal.

In that judgement it was OK for them to have a digital copy of a book, a PDF, a epub, txt, whatever. But it was illegal for them to *copy* a copyrighted book, and again the judge approved work around was, destroy the original.

Interestingly that should mean it's legal for a person to do the same, in the US.

I am not surprised at this.

In my use of AI, I realize that the user still needs to ask the right questions, with sufficient detail to get a good result. The user needs to push and probe on architecture to get a good result. This is not entry-level knowledge.

AIs provide a force multiplier to people who already have the background information to ask the right questions. These are the people who would architect solutions and then pass off implementation and guidance to the entry-level people.

I have a book that is one of 1000 ever printed. It has both ISBN 10 and ISBN 13 numbers.

It was a vanity project (a coffee table book) by the CEO of a public company - it was published under the banner of the company he ran, despite having absolutely no connection to the business of that company. Nevertheless, it's a historic record.

I doubt there are many of these books left.

Maybe the only behavior that is considered authentic by X comes from AI?

Elon doesn't want dissenting voices. Did you disagree with (or fail to support) the preferred Oligarch-first narrative?

This isn't a lot of data. I know someone with half this in their personal Plex library.

So: why no local copy in addition to the cloud copy?

Fires or other natural disasters destroying the building and the data with it?

The people behind Cambridge Analytica didn't go away. They just let one company fold and moved on. How many other entities are involved in the same manipulation via social media?

I suspect that the same people who are bankrolling Nigel Farage and others created the social media storm that caused the mass storming of Ceuta.

I know due process only applies in criminal cases, but this seems egregious:

In the last election, I voted against one candidate simply because of his police connection.

The only solution is successful lawsuits against the cities and counties that employ these scum. Can this happen? I don't know.
