We don't even have the ability to detect our civilization from the distances involved.

At meta? It ain't about ethics, or morals.

It's about money.

Plagiarism and copyright violation aren't the same thing, contrary to some people's opinion.

LLMs don't produce a literally work verbatim, they produce extracts verbatim. I have two ex-gf that can quote entire pages from books they've read. (dozens, to hundreds). (it helps to be on the spectrum).

But, the ability to do doesn't mean anything they produce is inherently a violation; it does increase the *risk*.

Copyright isn't that infectious.

You'd never be allowed to right a book after university as you would have been exposed to too much material if that were the case.

Clear room implementation is *not* required.

The idea of a clean room implementation is to remove the possibility of the resulting code being in violation, however, that's not actually required to avoid being in violation. That just makes it much easier to show good faith.

If you implement a test suite, and then have the AI generate a version that complies with the test suite, it's entirely possible you are not in violation.

Symantec code validation would be prudent, but not necessarily required.

(Replace all variables with generic references and see if the code matches up).

Keep in mind, have a dozen lines of code actually match still doesn't mean those lines are a violation, it just means they could be.

No. Incompetence; she'd be fired.

Baseless ha.

Basely comment about Claude?

I spent the last few days iterating over code to build an SDR Receiver framework. There are right ways to use AI to produce code, that includes validations and built in unit testing processes. You can take weeks of work down to a few days and you can provide validations for it. It won't be perfect, and it will require oversight, but it can be done.

Oh, and I've been writing this in a language that doesn't have many SDR examples, so no, it ain't _stolen code_.

Windchill temperatures aren't relevant for this discussion. At least not until rate of heat dissipation is a key component.

I got nothing against electric busses done right; but actual temperature is relevant for the discussion, not windchill.

(If the temperature is -30C, and windchill is -50C, your corpse will be found outside at -30, not -50C. The rate it kills you is affected by windchill, but not the final temperature.)

Sony wants in on this here because they'd get to set the rules.

Within a decade every new band, with or without AI would be triggering a percentage derived number and paying royalties or, more likely, ceasing to exist.

Haven't used it for anything but testing SMTP dialogs in years. At a previous employer we moved everyone from connecting to internal hosts from telnet to ssh at least twenty years ago. Kind of boggles the mind that there's hosts on the open Internet that still use the protocol.

Not sure why they have any employees.

Yes, I think the did a decent job of protecting from the worst abuses.

I'm into photography as a hobby, and do software development for a living. Talking with people about the use of AI, how it can be used, or abused is interesting. I do find myself explaining how even the first photos were often manipulated, and how staged photos can be or why they look the way they look.

(The lack of smiles in old photos, missing face tattoos of some aboriginals, etc)

Ah, yes. Windows Outlook had something like this more than a decade ago. I haven't worked in a Windows shop since around 2010 and you didn't have to manually look up individual participant's calendars to schedule meetings. (Though, IIRC, some managers chose to restrict access to their calendars.)

Congratulations, Google, on reinventing the wheel.

LLMs don't experience.

While an LLM could be connected to something else with a simulated consciousness, they themselves have no consciousness to experience.
