Con una trayectoria que pasa por El Periódico, El Mundo y La Vanguardia, fue un referente en el género de la entrevista y la crónica de ambiente y publicó numerosos libros
Con una trayectoria que pasa por El Periódico, El Mundo y La Vanguardia, fue un referente en el género de la entrevista y la crónica de ambiente y publicó numerosos libros
El periodista y escritor Arturo San Agustín (Barcelona, 1949) ha fallecido durante la mañana de hoy a los 76 años, según ha informado a primera hora La Vanguardia, uno de los periódicos que habían acogido sus crónicas y artículos de opinión y con el que más asiduamente colaboro en esta última etapa de su vida profesional.
Antes había sido una figura frecuente primero en El Periódico, desde donde proyectó su mirada crítica de la realidad catalana y barcelonesa, y después en el diario El Mundo. Junto a su faceta periodística, en la que se reveló un maestro de las entrevistas, desarrolló otra importante como escritor muy vinculado a temas como el Fútbol Club Barcelona, del que era un gran seguidor, y el Vaticano.
Destacan en su bibliografía títulos como El otro zoo de Barcelona, de 1976; M'agrada que em faci aquesta pregunta: l'entrevista en premsa, de 1999, La nena del Leopoldo: Una crónica de Barcelona, de 2010 o Un perro verde entre los jóvenes del Papa de 2011.
En el campo del ensayo, escribió Tras el portón de bronce, que analizaba la realidad vaticana en tiempos del papa Francisco. Otro libro relevante suyo, publicado en el 2014, fue Cuando se jodió el nuestro, en el que analizaba la complicada relación entre Catalunya y España con entrevistas incisivas a personajes como Miquel Iceta, Jordi Pujol, Josép Cuní, Enrique Juliana, José Manuel Lara o Juan Manuel Tresserras.
Nacido en Barcelona en 1949, Arturo San Agustín pasó su juventud en el barrio del Poblenou –ahora renovado y principal colonia expatriada en la ciudad– y después entre el Somorrostro y una escuela de la Barceloneta, siempre ligado a esta parte de Barcelona. Su padre trabajaba para la compañía gasista El Arenal, situada en el distrito.
Antes de dedicarse de lleno al periodismo, San Agustín trabajó durante diez años como creativo publicitario, una etapa que le sirvió para desarrollar un estilo comunicativo directo y desinhibido, repleto de matices sugerentes, que aplicó posteriormente a sus labores tanto literarias como periodísticas.
El presidente de EEUU explota el 'peloteo' del secretario general de la OTAN: "Creo que le gusto"
El presidente de EEUU explota el 'peloteo' del secretario general de la OTAN: "Creo que le gusto" Mark Rutte, el secretario general que hizo del servilismo a Trump una forma de liderar la OTAN Los mensajes privados del secretario general de la OTAN a Trump: “Europa pagará a lo grande”
Luego, ya durante el marco de la cumbre de la OTAN en La Haya, Rutte y Trump comparecieron este miércoles de forma distendida ante la prensa. Mientras el estadounidense trataba de explicar que veía el conflicto entre Israel e Irán como “dos niños en el patio del colegio” a los que hay que dejar que se peguen un rato antes de calmarse, el secretario general de la OTAN le compraba el argumento, y apostillaba: “Sometimes, daddy has to use strong language” (A veces, papi tiene que usar lenguaje fuerte).
La frase provocó la risa de algunos asistentes a la rueda de prensa, y la cosa no quedó ahí. En otra comparecencia posterior de Donald Trump ante los medios, una periodista de Sky News le preguntaba: “Mark Rutte le ha llamado papá; ¿usted ve a los aliados de la OTAN como una especie de hijos?”. Trump contestaba que Rutte es su amigo: “Le gusto, creo que le gusto, lo ha hecho con cariño… ‘papá, eres mi papá’”. De fondo, ni siquiera Marco Rubio, secretario de Estado de EEUU, podía aguantar la risa.
Y de nuevo, el asunto no ha quedado ahí. Esta madrugada, la cuenta oficial de la Casa Blanca ha publicado –en redes y en su web oficial– un vídeo de la llegada de Trump a la cumbre de la OTAN que podría parecer parodia, pero no lo es. Lleva en grande el título ‘Daddy’s home’ (la casa de papá) y va acompañada de la canción de Usher con ese mismo nombre.
I read your article about your initiative for new licenses for dataset holders in the AI industry.
Let’s be clear: I do not want to re-license my hundreds of CC-By comic pages to please AI giants.
I wish you would support CC artists suffering from massive plagiarism. You should enforce your own existing licenses against AI mass crawling. It seems you’ve joined the battle only after the casualties and still managed to side with the wrong people.
Psss! After reading all those comments here, I just had to channel my inner artist. So, here’s my new logo for you; because clearly, you need all the help you can get in your new mission. You're welcome! 😂
It's possible I'm not seeing this perspective. As of right now it all seems counter intuitive. AI in itself violates copyright and those license that already exist. Why would the giants of AI care to all of a sudden agree to operate with respect and grace? Honestly it amazes me there is not wide spread lawsuits world wide against AI deliberate violations and fostering misinformation (confusion). The only positive I see in cc signals is starting the conversation.
I don't get what this is even supposed to accomplish. AI companies don't respect existing licenses or copyrights, why would they respect usage preferences via these signals? There's no point of this approach when scrapers can just continue to hide behind the "fair use" argument and steal everything they want.
I would be happy if they just said: there were always clear rules. cc by can be used by machines, but then every single creator whose creations got used must be attributed properly.
Most of my creations are under cc by-sa. If a machine builds something on top of my creations, the rule *should* be clear: keep the license. If it reads cc by-sa, it must be cc by-sa (or a compatible license like GPLv3). 1/2 @creativecommons
@David Revoy This thing, along with the IETF draft that it is built upon, seems like a perfect excuse for the genAI leeches to keep sucking whatever they want.
“Well, of course we ingested your stuff in our model. If you didn’t want us to do that, all you had to do was to configure your webserver to return a Content-Usage: ai=n header; by not doing so, you in fact consented to us doing whatever we want.
(And if you did configure your webserver to return that header, tough luck, we‘ll do whatever we want anyway, because what are you going to do, sue us?)”
from the 4 proposed signals (credit, direct contribution, ecosystem contribution and open), none of them is about forbidding the usage of the assets to train AI😬
Dive into our early thinking below, then help shape what comes next! We’re looking for your ideas, feedback, and questions on the legal, technical, and social layers of this work.
The fact that there isn't a "no AI use" option is first and foremost telling about who this is for. It's an after the fact permission of the abuse that these companies have already subjected us all to.
They've been abusing both shared resources (the environment), and the resources of others (our intellectual property, and the web servers we host our stuff on), and by extension have violated the social contract.
And even if there was a no AI option with these new rules for Creative Commons, the past behavior of these companies has made it crystal clear that they won't bother respecting it. They pull back when big enough companies push back, but the rest of us can't afford to go after them in court, so they just run right over us like we don't matter.
All this is, is giving them permission after they've already abused the common good will. Doing that will only further build up their sense of entitlement.
Who did you all consult? Just the AI companies, right? No one who actually has looked at the harm these companies are doing, clearly.
@davidrevoy As long as certain countries allow to circumvent copyright for dtata mining.they can create as many new icons as they want. As long as (C) does not work, CC wouldn't either.
I just read this and... I have no idea what they're saying. It just seems to be an entire page of jargon and rah-rah devoid of any actual meaning.
As far as I can see, the fundamental issue is that they're proceeding from the flawed position that the "AI" companies have any redeeming value to society at large whatsoever (they don’t), and that they care what license we publish under (they don’t).
CC Legal’s top priority is to responsibly steward our licenses and public domain tools, ensuring that CC’s existing licenses and legal tools remain relevant, user-friendly, and as effective as possible in service of creators and reusers.
was this article written by a poorly trained LLM? because it says a lot of nothing. "CC signals are designed to sustain the commons in the age of AI" doesn't tell me anything. time to relicense my work..
I'm not sure what you mean by enforcing their licenses? They can only enforce their licenses on works they own; they don't have any right to enforce anyone else's copyrights, even if they wrote the license the work is published under.
that's... sad. I totally support free culture and I love initiatives CC were doing for like 2 decades. Nowadays I release my original music as CC BY-SA and in the early 2010s I was also involved in totally different projects involving CC music. I might be totally wrong, but my impression is that things are pretty different and now most of the projects that used to advocate that strong for free culture are moving too close to AI bullshit.
This is yet another example of how Creative Commons has – since its inception by Larry Lessig – always designed policy from a libertarian sense of regulatory minimalism.
I'm not an expert on any area of creativity other than software, but I believe a strong regulatory regime that holds Big Tech accountable is paramount.
“Moving fast and breaking things” should not be a default for policy makers who care about individual creators.
I wonder how they could protect existing licenses against AI crawling when said existing licenses don't say anything about that? I think that is why these new licenses were created? No? We need Congress to act to extend copyright protections here. And I wish they would. In the mean time I am grateful to creative commons for trying here. They didn't deserve a hand bite here.
Problem This whole idea is completely and utterly wrong. Description Inviting AI scrapers to negotiate licensing terms for CC works is like a flock of sheep holding a summit to draft ethical guidel...
Wrong and right ia subjective. But it does sound like they sided with the EVIL people, that's for sure. And if the evil side is the right side for someone that says a lot about that someone.
the missing NOAI tag is the reason im sceptical of using a CC license.
I can understand that allowing AI keeps things more open, but it really should be a creattors choice to say no if they do not want to support that industry. I believe that is part of why we want a license to protect work from AI.
CC signals is a framework for a simple pact between those stewarding data, and those reusing it for AI development. CC signals provide a set of shared ground rules for an AI ecosystem that is mutua...
"building a more equitable, sustainable AI ecosystem rooted in shared benefits" Shared benefits? LOL. I don't want to share anything with fascist, world burning billionaires and their dream machines.
I don't see why we need extra signals and I don't see how it would help if their bots circumvent any measures and contracts we had for ages. The ones who have to change are not we who want to share and value an open internet, its them who must change! @creativecommons
Shouldn't the answer be simple? If you use the BY license you're supposed to give appropriate attribution when you use the work to train an AI model. Why would this somehow be different now?
did you miss the article where they explicitly said that all previously existing CC licenses are NOT compatible with AI training (unless crediting in the training data –and only some of them–, but let's be honest, AI companies would rather kill themselves, so this is virtually a prohibition.)
I don't think this CC Signals license article is actually directed to artists, I think this is a smokescreen to trick AI companies into feeling catered to; by explicitly creating an AI-friendly license they actively impede the AI companies from trying to ever argue that the previous CC derivative licenses were vague enough for AI training or in a "use case too new to be covered by a license" grey-area.
I really can't see how someone could see these two articles side by side and believe that Creative Commons was on anyone's side but the artists who use CC licenses
This is all very confusing and, honestly, a let down. I agree with you that it seems they're just trying to work with llms instead of maybe supporting the community of Cultural Workers that have been using CC licences for years.
This is part of why I believe Free-Culture is just a stepping stone to what sharing Culture should be, and not an end goal. Also why I believe that allowing organizations like Creative Commons to control the narrative on Free-Culture is dangerous.
Perhaps it's time to move to different sets of licences, or to ignore the organization completely and use the licenses as normal. I have often wondered, if Creative Commons ceases to exist, are licenses still valid?
given that a US judge just ruled that train a model on top of books is fair use what do you expect creative commons to be able to do to fight against that?
Well, the articles on the website are really wishy washy and unclear what this all means (LLM generated?).
The report however is a bit more clear and and far as i understand it this is not meant to be a new licence; more like add ons you can use if you decide to allow reuse for AI. It seems to be comparable with the "Do not track" signal. That's totally fine in my opinion. I don't think though that we will see big effects if the big AI firms just ignore it
I'm very upset how little acknowledgement gets the fact that the gen-ai scene currently violates BY clause nonstop. They are not even trying. Not even by giving thousands of pages long list with every source they scrapped.
@ArneBab @prinlu Regarding this and your previous point I think that in many cases, we (and also the models as well) may inadvertently create things with features similar to existing copyrighted works, and with enough resources someone can find some character to bootstrap a lawsuit and win, regardless that the other party don't even have any knowledge about that work/characters.
@ArneBab @prinlu I wish it was so simple as claiming that every output is "public domain", but it's more complex, esp. regarding Intellectual Property. Eg. The Terminator picture with a guitar generated (in your link) is clearly reusing the Terminator Intellectual Property. It's an accumulation of elements: the glasses, the face, body, the jacket... If you try to make a business with selling this picture, the copyright owner (StudioCanal) might sue you and win easily.
@prinlu @ArneBab But I heard that in the Midjourney case, they actually knowingly used copyrighted materials as advertisement and such, and don't provide much measures against generating copyrighted characters and works so it's like that they cannot use an excuse of not knowing about that and intentionally violated copyrights
@prinlu @ArneBab No: the court refused the author of "A Recent Entrance To Paradise" to be copyrighted. Not a case of a owner fighting for their intellectual properties.
The fact "it can't be copyrighted" doesn't mean it cannot be attacked if it degrades the Intellectual property of a brand, or owner, or bring them commercial prejudices.
The result of this bbc.com/news/articles/cg5vjqdm… will answer (on a US law POV) the debate around Intellectual Property usage in AI output...
@ArneBab @prinlu In the blog post the other commenter provided above, the author knows that they generated Terminator (a copyrighted character) so it's considered some kind of unauthorized reproduction under copyright laws and since they know that it's extremely difficult if impossible to defend. And note that in machine learning and AI, if a model reproduces parts of its training data, it's considered overfitting and pretty much researchers are aiming to avoid that

With our dept. reorg. I am now working with another engineer who is (guessing) mid-70’s. It’s insane. I am having to show him how to navigate around our internal network to locate files, etc. I don’t think this is in my job description.
@DaddyO I think that one of the main reasons for the reorg, and putting me in this position was give this guy a hand. He has tons of experience, but he’s old and antiquated. He really needs to retire, but doesn’t want to because he needs the health ins. apparently.

In einem Gespräch, das sich wie ein wirtschaftlicher #Seismograph liest, entlarvt der Finanzexperte Alexander #Streeb die #Altersvorsorge der Deutschen als fragile Illusion. Im Interview mit Markus #Langemann vom Club der klaren Worte spricht er nicht nur als Fachmann, sondern als Gewissen einer Branche, die sich in Deckung windet.
Streebs Bilanz ist vernichtend: Private Renten- und #Lebensversicherungen seien nichts weiter als „staatlich gedeckte Schuldscheine“, deren Auszahlungsversprechen durch Paragraph 314 des Versicherungsaufsichtsgesetzes jederzeit einkassiert werden können – ganz legal. Noch gravierender: Selbst wenn Versicherungen ihre Leistungen kürzen oder ganz verweigern, bleibt der Kunde zur #Beitragszahlung verpflichtet.
Streeb schildert, wie ganze Generationen unter dem Vorwand von Sicherheit Verträge abgeschlossen haben, die real – inflationsbereinigt – massive Verluste produzieren. Und er benennt Ross und Reiter: Politiker wie Friedrich Merz oder Ursula von der Leyen, die offen darüber sprechen, wie man an das Ersparte der Bürger „herankommt“.
Gleichzeitig warnt Streeb vor einem digital kontrollierten Finanzregime aus #Bargeldverbot, programmierbarem Euro und einem europaweiten Vermögensregister – flankiert von der neuen AMLA-Behörde, einem „trojanischen Pferd“ zur Überwachung der Finanzströme jedes Einzelnen.
Was bleibt, ist ein dramatischer Appell: Wer nicht selbst Verantwortung für sein #Vermögen übernimmt, wird es verlieren. Und mit ihm seine #Freiheit.

It feels weird to just jump into a generic Linux community and ask a question. It's nice being so small - kinda like the internet used to be.
Anyway, I've been running Linux servers for decades but only recently switched my desktop. I first tried Debian 12 and I'm now on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed - I switched in the hope of getting newer drivers and maybe fixing this issue.
I have a HP laptop with onboard Intel graphics and an external monitor connected with USB-C. In general it works great - until it doesn't. From time to time the external monitor does not wake up after a suspend. Normally turning the monitor off and back on will cause some sort of driver reset and it comes back. Once or twice this has not helped and I've had to reboot.
I'm running Xorg as Wayland on Tumbleweed won't start on t his machine. Wayland may have worked with Debian, I don't recall. I don't think it's worth listing details of my versions as it's happened on two distros and through a couple of minor updates to Xorg on openSUSE. It happens with KDE or LXDE.
1) If you use the same USB port for this all the time, disable power saving on that port 2) Make sure this isn't a PD port (this is a laptop design annoyance) 3) Make sure your monitor's own power saving settings aren't the issue by disabling things like "deep sleep" or similar
Another thing to try is download Fedora LiveUSB and test it with that (it will be Wayland). If it works, then you know it's a config issue with your distro.
1) If you use the same USB port for this all the time, disable power saving on that port
I use the same port all the time. I want power saving on the port. I like to just get up from my PC and have it go to sleep by itself and wake back up when I come and jiggle the mouse. It's working exactly as I would like maybe 90% of the time. Just sometimes the external monitor doesn't wake up.
2) Make sure this isn't a PD port (this is a laptop design annoyance)
It is a PD port, and it is powering the laptop. I'm not sure why this would be a problem? It's worked fine for 5-6 years with Windows and works 90% of the time now with Linux.
3) Make sure your monitor's own power saving settings aren't the issue by disabling things like "deep sleep" or similar
Again, I'm not sure how this could be a problem for the scenario I describe. The settings work fine 90% of the time. It's not even time related: sometimes I can come to it first thing in the morning, after it's been asleep all night, and it wakes perfectly; sometimes I can get up to go get a glass of water and come back and the external monitor won't wake up. It seems totally random.
1) Power saving features may not fire on changing from sleep states. This happens on Windows as well, but the power management system in Windows disables power saving features of the port when a display is detected. In Linux you want this off for the same reasons. It doesn't prevent the machine from sleeping. 2) On waking, PD ports can cause issues with negotiation of the signal reset and changemode for displays. 3) Monitors communicate their power status over USB-C, so when your machine wakes up, it may try to fire an event that says "wake up" to the monitor, but if the monitor isn't in a state where it's expected a signal (deep sleep), then it won't wake up.
Any one of these could be the issue, but if you don't want to take steps to debug it, then just unplugging and replugging the cable will kick the monitor back up.
Does it work if you unplug and replug? If you hit a button other than power does it wake up, or does it say "no signal" or something? Does the laptop see it? Anything in any log? Can you force a redetection from the laptop?
If you hit a button other than power does it wake up, or does it say "no signal" or something?
Yes.
Does the laptop see it?
I'm assuming not as it does not display on it. Next time it happens I'll see what xrandr says.
Anything in any log?
Nothing in Xorg.0.log and nothing that seems related in the journal. I'll keep journalctl --follow running and see if anything that I didn't pick as being related comes up next time it happens.
you're running way too old a distro for what you want. debian 12 has its merits as a server, you install it and leave it be and it just works.
what you want - fluidity with power management, dock/undock, etc - although achievable with tweaking this and that isn't being worked on, not on X, not on debian 12, so it's not like those things will eventually get there. so you need a semi-modern distro, like ubuntu or fedora or even trixie.
wayland isn't new, it's default on a lot of distros since 2021 or so, so you can be sure that your use case was previosly met and solved. costs you nothing to boot e.g. F42 off a USB and try it out (has to be 42 as earlier live sessions default to X11). if you have lots of RAM, add the rd.live.ram switch so it copies the image to RAM and everything is super-snappy for testing and it doesn't touch your SSD.

Earlier on a post elsewhere an European person expressed bafflement about how many positions considered normal and obvious in a decent society are considered "Radical Left Wing" on the US, and someone answered with "Helps to think of America like a white Saudi Arabia". Incredible how well it fits.
Comme au bon vieux temps de la Sainte #Inquisition, Jean-Marc #Sabatier fait l’objet d’un procès en sorcellerie instruit par les nouveaux Torquemada médiatiques qui réclament son excommunication du sacro-saint #CNRS. Mais #ChatGPT et l’université américaine de #Stanford brossent un autre portrait du chercheur.
À quelques jours d’intervalle plusieurs médias ont jeté l’anathème sur Jean-Marc Sabatier, chercheur au CNRS, parce que ses prises de position sur la #covid-19 et les ‘’ #vaccins’’ (guillemets obligatoires) anti-Covid vont à contre-courant du fameux ‘’consensus scientifique’’ que les géants de la tech et la meute médiatique nous imposent depuis cinq ans. Sabatier dérange les bien-pensants, les abonnés au dogme #BigPharma et à leurs énormes profits. Il faut donc le faire taire, le censurer, l’invisibiliser, le calomnier et demander son exclusion du CNRS.

The second of the Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) satellites and the first instrument for the Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission are ready for liftoff at Cape Canaveral in Florida, US. Live coverage of this launch will be shown on ESA WebTV, not earlier than Tuesday, 1 July.
America is just the country that shows how all the written guarantees in the world for freedom are no protection against tyranny and oppression of the worst kind. -- Peter Kropotkin
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is once again claiming to be a tough “Bronx girl” — but a New York Republican lawmaker just pulled her yearbook receipts. 💀
Assemblyman Matt Slater posted a photo of AOC from Yorktown High School — a nice, quiet suburb an hour north of the Bronx.
🗣️ “If you’re a BX girl then why are you in my Yorktown yearbook? Give it up already,” he wrote.
So while AOC plays the role of a gritty inner-city underdog, she actually spent her teen years in Westchester County — one of the wealthiest areas in New York.
This is classic Democrat behavior: pretend to be a working-class hero while living off the perks of a privileged zip code. 💼🎭
Sorry, AOC — the whole “Bronx girl” shtick just got fact-checked.

Most of my creations are under cc by-sa. If a machine builds something on top of my creations, the rule *should* be clear: keep the license. If it reads cc by-sa, it must be cc by-sa (or a compatible license like GPLv3).

in reply to David Revoy • • •The fact that there isn't a "no AI use" option is first and foremost telling about who this is for. It's an after the fact permission of the abuse that these companies have already subjected us all to.
They've been abusing both shared resources (the environment), and the resources of others (our intellectual property, and the web servers we host our stuff on), and by extension have violated the social contract.
And even if there was a no AI option with these new rules for Creative Commons, the past behavior of these companies has made it crystal clear that they won't bother respecting it. They pull back when big enough companies push back, but the rest of us can't afford to go after them in court, so they just run right over us like we don't matter.
All this is, is giving them permission after they've already abused the common good will. Doing that will only further build up their sense of entitlement.
Who did you all consult? Just the AI companies, right? No one who actually has looked at the harm these companies are doing, clearly.

in reply to David Revoy • • •I just read this and... I have no idea what they're saying. It just seems to be an entire page of jargon and rah-rah devoid of any actual meaning.
As far as I can see, the fundamental issue is that they're proceeding from the flawed position that the "AI" companies have any redeeming value to society at large whatsoever (they don’t), and that they care what license we publish under (they don’t).

Perhaps the creation, recognition, and use (or choice to not use) of a new “AI=Yes” license would go against whatever arguments fly now.
Or they could just be flushing their credibility.

in reply to David Revoy • • •This is yet another example of how Creative Commons has – since its inception by Larry Lessig – always designed policy from a libertarian sense of regulatory minimalism.
I'm not an expert on any area of creativity other than software, but I believe a strong regulatory regime that holds Big Tech accountable is paramount.
“Moving fast and breaking things” should not be a default for policy makers who care about individual creators.

in reply to David Revoy • • •the missing NOAI tag is the reason im sceptical of using a CC license.
I can understand that allowing AI keeps things more open, but it really should be a creattors choice to say no if they do not want to support that industry. I believe that is part of why we want a license to protect work from AI.

in reply to David Revoy • • •did you miss the article where they explicitly said that all previously existing CC licenses are NOT compatible with AI training (unless crediting in the training data –and only some of them–, but let's be honest, AI companies would rather kill themselves, so this is virtually a prohibition.)
I don't think this CC Signals license article is actually directed to artists, I think this is a smokescreen to trick AI companies into feeling catered to; by explicitly creating an AI-friendly license they actively impede the AI companies from trying to ever argue that the previous CC derivative licenses were vague enough for AI training or in a "use case too new to be covered by a license" grey-area.
I really can't see how someone could see these two articles side by side and believe that Creative Commons was on anyone's side but the artists who use CC licenses

in reply to David Revoy • • •This is all very confusing and, honestly, a let down. I agree with you that it seems they're just trying to work with llms instead of maybe supporting the community of Cultural Workers that have been using CC licences for years.
This is part of why I believe Free-Culture is just a stepping stone to what sharing Culture should be, and not an end goal. Also why I believe that allowing organizations like Creative Commons to control the narrative on Free-Culture is dangerous.
Perhaps it's time to move to different sets of licences, or to ignore the organization completely and use the licenses as normal. I have often wondered, if Creative Commons ceases to exist, are licenses still valid?
Anywho. @creativecommons , this is stupid.

in reply to David Revoy • • •I don't think we need any new @creativecommons licenses, the existing ones should be enough. We just want them to be respected.
CC-BY means that if your LLM outputs something based on my stuff, I want to be credited.
CC-SA means if your LLM uses my stuff, the model needs to be shared.
CC-NC means if your LLM uses my stuff, you can't charge for using your LLM.
The meaning of CC licenses is clear, we don't need new shit.
Stefan Bartsch
in reply to David Revoy • • •Well, the articles on the website are really wishy washy and unclear what this all means (LLM generated?).
The report however is a bit more clear and and far as i understand it this is not meant to be a new licence; more like add ons you can use if you decide to allow reuse for AI. It seems to be comparable with the "Do not track" signal.
That's totally fine in my opinion. I don't think though that we will see big effects if the big AI firms just ignore it

The fact "it can't be copyrighted" doesn't mean it cannot be attacked if it degrades the Intellectual property of a brand, or owner, or bring them commercial prejudices.
The result of this bbc.com/news/articles/cg5vjqdm… will answer (on a US law POV) the debate around Intellectual Property usage in AI output...
