It will not with the current way it goes, because AI models are artificially biased to not offend intellectual property owners and to protect powerful people or influential lobbies.

Mickey Mouse according to OpenAI is just a symptom, but the root of the issue is very deep if the people preparing the dataset intentionally decide to exclude examples due to commercial or political pressure.

Maybe OpenAI doesn't get it, but Midjourney has no problems showing me Mickey Mouse

And if we've learned anything about AI in the last 6 months we've learned:

1) AI is probably trained on data obtained without the creators permission

2) AI responses are very hard to control, and easily jailbroken

It has, however, a problem with showing you President Xi [1].

Everyone's gangsta until the CCP funding is exposed!

As an AI language model, I am unable to confirm or deny the receipt of funds from the CCP.

Funnily enough midjourney's CEO is the only owner and has no VC's money behind.

He might just want to be able to visit china in the future

What about Winnie the pooh?

And there are also already copyright holders filing lawsuits against AI image generators for exactly that: https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/6/23587393/ai-art-copyright-...

Good luck suing the coming open source decentralized models. There will be pages and pages of models on torrent trackers in the very near future.

Since AI can’t hold copyright, it can’t make money, thus what, exactly, are the damages?

You're talking as if weak AI is sentient and performing the act itself. The damages are from actual people and/or companies involved in the act of distributing derivative works from copyrighted material using forward diffusion, gradient descent, and other techniques.

Saas can't make money?

I've noticed that ChatGPT will often suggest paying for SaaS solutions over using FOSS or building from scratch even for simple things. Definitely heavily biased towards "buy" rather than "build." Hard to say if it's a general trend but it did tickle my cynicism.

I think that's more likely due to internet commentators generally suggesting SaaS solutions over using FOSS or building from scratch. How many more blog posts are there about how great a SaaS is than there are about how they really liked building a product in house. ChatGPT reflects the internet, and the internet is a SaaS seller's world.

Yeah, you can steer it to use open source libs, or specific libs, if you want to

Somehow I don't think I have seen that CAD/modeling tool before.

Wonder how much other open source software I am unaware of?
