Reply to comment by Fexxvi in This Copyright Lawsuit Could Shape the Future of Generative AI by Gari_305

People can also take inspiration from every other object to build artwork. This machine learning, is only using artwork, so the sample size is much smaller for the machine learning, and that means the machine learning has a limited scope to learn about art.

So? That doesn't refute my point.

Yes it does. Because the machine learning algorithm is only using copyrighted work, to create an output. A human can look at a tree and use that as inspiration. It’s not that hard to comprehend.

My original argument was:

“No, programmers are using other people's images to teach their AI's, just like you would teach an art student to learn styles and techniques from previous paintings. Once the AI has learned, those images are not stored anywhere in the AI's code.”

You said it was wrong, yet your comment

“People can also take inspiration from every other object to build artwork. This machine learning, is only using artwork, so the sample size [...]”

doesn't refute said argument. So either say something to refute my argument which, according to you is wrong or stop trying to move the goalposts.

Yes it does. You are just showing me you don’t know anything about AI.

OK, then. The argument is:

“Programmers are using other people's images to teach their AI's, just like you would teach an art student to learn styles and techniques from previous paintings. Once the AI has learned, those images are not stored anywhere in the AI's code.”

Now refute it.

The code in the AI has memory. The memory is updated using the copyrighted works. Then the code will call that memory to build a new image.

The memory is updated using the copyrighted AI.”? Excuse me? Or do you mean “the memory is updated using copyrighted material ”?

Ya, updated the comment. However, my point stands. The programmer will setup the code to use the computer’s RAM. When then RAM is updated to build the training data, it’s part of the program.

I don't understand this. Explain exactly this refutes my point in simple words, please.

Code takes data. Codes stores data in computer’s memory, code pulls data, to compute the algorithm, based on user input. Algorithm output is the combination of user input and the data used to build the model.

The biggest bottleneck in analytics is memory. That’s why Hadoop is also becoming a big deal, so an analyst can use the memory of multiple computers at the same time. Which means memory and the data used in memory is an aspect of a machine learning program.

OK, I think I got it. How does this disprove my comment again?

Because the AI code is storing data from the training set, to build the algorithm.

“Data” as in the knowledge the AI has gained from the training, yes. Just like an art student remembers the styles and techniques they've learnt.
