You forgot... "by stealing from artists and writers at scale".

[jacquesm]

You forgot about 'open source contributors' and 'musicians'.

[soulofmischief]

As an open source contributor and musician who is not rich, I am pretty stoked about the engineering, scientific and mathematical advancements being made in my lifetime.

I have only become more creatively enabled when adopting these tools, and while I share the existential dread of becoming unemployable, I also am wearing machine-fabricated clothing and enjoying a host of other products of automation.

I do not have selective guilt over modern generative tools because I understand that one day this era will be history and society will be as integrated with AI as we are with other transformative technologies.

these two groups are used to having their stuff stolen way more than the groups GP listed, so in a way kind of appropriate to have been omitted.

and don't forget "subtle backdoors disguised as regular example code"

[TheDong]

You're saying "musicians" aren't "artists", and "open source contributors" aren't artists _or_ writers? Artists covers both of the groups you said.

The picture will be incomplete if we don't mention that those 'artists and writers' are using the results at scale.

Techbros trying to replace wage theft as the largest $ crime in the US

Something something… great artist steal.

[jaybyrd]

well if all the talent is stolen and put into our water destruction machine we can make significantly worse and more expensive versions of just giving the job to a wagey
