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

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.

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.
