    Lol you think a link is going to stop anyone scraping Lemmy data for AI training?

      No, what it means is that if they can prove someone scraped their data and used it for commercial gain - they can sue them for real money.

          There’s nothing to be skeptical about.

          The difficulty isn’t in establishing legal precedence, the difficulty is in the proof. How do you prove that your data is distinguishable from any of the other countless people who have had their data scraped?

          I don’t think it’s bad to set yourself up for a future payday, but it will take a lot of work from someone else in order to see it pay off.

            You might be able to prompt the AI to tell you itself by asking about text that goes with the label. I was able to get chatgpt 3.5 to do a bit of that, though it still kept it fairly generic.

            The part I’m skeptical about is whether you can apply whatever license you want to text you post on a public forum just by pasting a link at the bottom.
