What legal precedent said theft is legal if it's used to train AI?

“This ruling does not stand for the proposition that Meta’s use of copyrighted materials to train its language models is lawful,” Chhabria said. “It stands only for the proposition that these plaintiffs made the wrong arguments and failed to develop a record in support of the right one.”

Still quite a bullshit ruling.

Well, no. If I sue you for defamation and provide evidence that you kick puppies for fun. The ruling doesn't prove that kicking puppies for fun is ok or that you didn't commit defamation, just that I have a bad lawyer.

Would you prefer that judges rule however they prefer even with no evidence to support the ruling was presented?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd prefer that you understood what "bullshit" means

Precisely. I don't know why you expect replies above the kindergarden level when your comments are kindergarden level.
