The biggest problem about AI is not intrinsic to AI. It’s to do with the fact that it’s owned by the same few people, and I have less and less interest in what those people think, and more and more criticisms of what the effect of their work has been.

    Legally, the one hosting the material is the one who is punished, not the downloader. Though, if they are using torrent software, they are both downloading and hosting. Copyright law doesn’t give a shit why they’re watching it.

    If I downloaded pictures on the internet by visiting a web site, I’m not going to suddenly get punished because it’s copyrighted. Otherwise, every one of us is now in trouble because of the linked article.
