> Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque said “I believe they are ethically, morally and legally sourced and used,” before adding: “Some folks disagree so we are doing opt out and alternate datasets/models that are fully cc.”
I strongly disagree with this sentiment. People put things online because they deem the risks of doing so acceptable vs. the the reward of accessibility and exposure. That calculation changes in a world where generative AI tools exist.
If we achieved quantum computing tomorrow, all of the norms around what is considered safe would change overnight. We would not retroactively tell people they had it coming if suddenly people were getting breached left and right because the assumptions they had relied on are no longer relevant.
Opt out isn't how it works sir.
