Matt Wilcox on Nostr: AI scraping is not fair use. Regardless of whether it spits out content verbatim. ...
AI scraping is not fair use. Regardless of whether it spits out content verbatim. Fair use is aimed at legitamising *singular instances*. An article. A report. A video.
AI uses your work in perpetuity. It can profit off it forever. It’s part of the model. A model that would have *no value* without its training material.
That’s not fair use.
