No, and I don't give a shit about them or app developers. Sorry, i know I am supposed to fIGhT ThE PoWeR or something, but couldn't care less. Fed up of reading about it, in fact I'll probably stop using beehaw because that's all there is to read - reddit this reddit that. BORING

Just speculation, but I think it's because people think Getty can hire top class laywers and therefore has a better chance of winning compared to, say, the group of artists who were also taking Dall-E to court

It is if they send you a cease and desist letter

It's a 13 minutes rehashing the same points everyone has been making to death. And it doesn't even mention LLMs

I disagree, it's still too early and a bit presumptuous to make such conclusive statements

Sure but I'm not sure why you are bringing this up. What's the wider point you are trying to make?

Getty is already suing the Dall-E creators, and someone is suing MS for Copilot; so it's already started

I am sorry but you don't know what you are talking about. These things are regulated by legal documents, you don't just wake up on morning and say "trust me bro, their data is public"

If you go and read their TnC's it explicitly statea that scraping is forbidden without prioir written consent. They only allow access to their data via APIs, which of course they charge for

The fact that it can be easily scraped it's neither here nor there, if they catch you they can sue you

Technically not (well, they can make it harder), but they can sue them for doing it

Oh I'm not saying they are doing the right thing or that it was the correct decision. Just speculating whether LLMs is what kicked off the whole thing

Good try, dessalines, but I ain't biting 😉

I’ve yet to run into any of these individuals.
