Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

MODERATORS
A reminder, they started with books3, a dataset that was always very honest that it was entirely pirated material from the private torrent tracker Bibliotik.
They always knew, they never had any intention to pay a dime to any of the creatives they stole from.
When you steal big enough, they let you do it and say it's just business. When you steal small potatoes like The Pirate Bay, they lock you up.
"Yes judge I downloaded Shrek 2 to train my neural net for my startup"
"The name of my neural net? Sailor Sega Saturn's brain I guess..."
"Oh my startup? That's what I call trying to get out of bed in the morning!"
...and then you start singing All Star by Smash Mouth at the judge.
SomeBODY once told me
The world was gonna roll me
I'm only a stochastic parrot
She was looking kinda dumb
Drawing those extra thumbs
And insisting that the L was on your head
Well, the slop starts coming and it don't stop coming
Steal all the books so you hit the ground running
Didn't make sense but I still got funds
Stole so much art but it still looks dumb
So much to steal, not much for free
So what's wrong with my copyright cheat
You'll never know where your power flowed
Just wait on my uranium glow!
Hey now, you're a slop star
Regulators get played
Hey now, you're a great mark
But Sam Altman got paid
All that matters is growth
And that journalists all get rolled
"All that matters is growth" fits so incredibly well there my goodness
this is unreasonably good, well done
