White House accuses China of 'industrial scale' theft of AI technology
reuters.comIt's multi levels of of irony how China probably did steal a lot of US intellectual property over the last few decades, but then the US goes and devalues the entirety of intellectual property (for fear of falling behind by restricting the freedoms of their leading tech companies) by allowing AI to suck it all up and spit it back out in a slightly altered fashion, and then go on and accuse China of stealing AI technology intellectual property.
Maybe I should have some sympathy. But I don't.
What's the US actually going to do about it? What can the US actually do about it?
If nothing, then this is just shouting at clouds.
Thats what the Attention Economy produces. Podcasts and Tweets. Americans now over value what and who captures Attention more than they do people who build stuff. The Attention Economy is diggging the grave. No chinese required.
White House wants to call distillation theft, but not the training of the models is a bit wild to me.
