The tech company’s latest proposal about generative AI turns copyright law on its head, and could especially hurt smaller content creators, say experts

In its submission to the Australian government’s review of the regulatory framework around AI, Google said that copyright law should be altered to allow for generative AI systems to scrape the internet.

    I agree with google, only I go a step further and say any AI model trained on public data should likewise be public for all and have its data sources public as well. Can’t have it both ways Google.

      To be fair, Google releases a lot of models as open source: https://huggingface.co/google

      Using public content to create public models is also fine in my book.

      But since it’s Google I’m also sure they are doing a lot of shady stuff behind closed doors.
