I really don’t want my photos, writings, etc to be used for things like StableDiffusion or ChatGPT, but some of them I still want to release under an open access license that’s free for others to use in conventional derivative works, just specifically not AI. Does such a license exist?
Or at the very least, if my work is to be used to train AI, then I think the final models and neural networks themselves need to be open source and also free for anyone to use (as in, people should be able to download and run the AI on their own computer, not have to use the company’s web app. Does CC-BY-SA protect against this since it requires that any derivative works also be released under the same license? Does it work like GPL in that regard?
I mean, is copyright not specifically designed (by the big corporations mind you) to default to not allowing content to be used unless permission is explicitly given by the rights holder? So shouldn’t the answer to whether any content can be used is a big NO unless the author or distributor specifically allows it to be used?
There’s this thing called fair use .
The usage is clearly limited as can be determined by size of trained materials versus size of models. I would argue the use is transformative enough, after all you got from text/image inputs to effectively a tool that can produce texts and images.
If I write a story too similar to a Disney movie I will get sued, yet this is okay? Wtf
