Mhm, fair enough, I suppose this is a difference in priorities then. Personally, I’m not nearly as worried about small players, like hobbyists and small companies, who wouldn’t’ve already developed something like this in house.
And I brought up “security through obscurity” because I’m somewhat optimistic that this can work out like encryption has, where tons of open source research was done into encryption and decryption, until we worked out encryption standards that we can run at home that are unbreakable before the heat death of the universe with current server farms.
Many of those people releasing decryption methods were considered villains, because it made hacking some previously private data easy and accessible, but that research was the only way to get to where we are, and I’m hopeful that one day we actually could make an unbeatable AI poison, so I’m happy to support research that pushes us towards that end.
I’m just not satisfied preventing small players from training AI on art without permission while knowingly leaving Google and OpenAI an easy way to bypass it.
Amen to that, here’s to hoping.
