This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
my opinion is:... it's obvious. it's microsoft. they do everything to make profit, AI included.
Not defending Microsoft, but isn't that the same for all companies.
no. especially not in the open source service world that runs 4/5ths of the internet.
if the document doesn't explicitly say that they don't.. they do. and even if it did, odds are they do anyway.
Why ask when you know the answer is yes?
If the product is free, you are the product. Even when it's not free, you're still the product because data is too valuable.
although a good mentality, its not always correct. Also, this isn't just about "asking", it's fighting big corps/tech to be more transparent about their policies.
“Open”AI stole the open web and monetized it and made billions , and there are no solid legal consequences. So why Microsoft and other companies wont do the same? I mean Google is doing it and made an empire of it.
Good question.
For me, there is a difference - I feel differently about a company using stuff I posted on the open web vs messages I've sent on Teams, Skype, etc., which feel like they should be more private. There is probably also a legal/privacy angle for this difference too, for this same reason (?)
Was openai ever open? Or its just a name scheme
I've been meaning to look that up for a while
OpenAI was created as an open source (which is why I named it “Open” AI), non-profit company to serve as a counterweight to Google, but now it has become a closed source, maximum-profit company effectively controlled by Microsoft.
Interesting
What if i publish all my personal data myself. What if i also publish with a licence forcing anything that uses it to be opensource?
Same thing they're doing right now: ignoring the license.
Of cause cos the rules only apply to us
Isn't everyone?
no.
Signed. Thanks Mozilla and fuck you Microsoft
I'm just going to start posting in Esperanto. Even AI won't be interested in learning Esperanto.
They do exist! :-)
Learning a fake language definitely sounds easier than learning to use Linux.
Certainly easier than convincing my job to let me put linux on my work laptop.
Hot tip: If you're switching to Linux and you're not sure how to do something - ask your favourite LLM AI chatbot for help.
There's typically some terminal command or config file or something that you can do to get what you want, and I'm sure it all makes sense to an experienced linux person, but its not easy to guess what to do as a novice. But since all the commands and such are well documented, you can get pretty good advice from the AI. As usual, it won't be completely reliable - but you can think of it as a bit like asking a tech expert for help over the phone. They know a lot and can help you - but they can't see exactly what's on the screen and they may 'misremember' some details from time to time. So it isn't perfect, but it's certainly good enough to find what you are looking for.
(Or you can just ask a real person. Those are pretty helpful too.)
Homie appreciate you typing all that but I'm a full time Linux engineer. If anything stuff I have worked on and written has become part of the AI landscape.
Fair enough. I didn't really mean to direct what I was saying at you specifically; rather I was just kind of continuing the conversation.
And yeah, the only reason that the AI stuff works at all is because people have taken the time to write down good advice in the past - which has then unforeseeably used as AI training data (without consultation or compensation...) So yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if your work was in there somewhere.
Does the pope shit in the woods?
Only if nobody is around to hear it
Done 👍
Also done
Done the third
I don't even use any Microsoft products but I did it anyway.
Something something spez the hurensohn also jumping in on the same bandwagon some time back?
I mean, it is. They keep a list of all your conversations and they are extremely vague about giving a direct reply. Hopefully this does something because, like US congress has itself admitted, they cannot afford to let the same thing happen with advanced AIs that they've let happen with social networks. Transparency needs to be a thing, and not fake "oh yeah I'm all about transparency" then goes out of their way to hide shit under the carpet or gaslight with bullshit when they can't.
too bad they aren't waiting for the answer (lmao) before switching to microsoft git hosting for their development
I dont use anything made by microsoft so i dont think its using my data to train AI
It's probably ok for you to not use this form then.
