Is there any benefit to the author of letting a for profit LLM like OpenAI spider and consume their writing? I can’t think of any.
If that’s true, then should we be rethinking Creative Commons licenses? I’m wondering if the current one we use at Medium is obsolete.
At least with something like Google there was an exchange of value: contribute to their search results and get traffic back.
@coachtony It does seem very much like the post-Flickr era of open licenses largely became fodder for exploitation in the same way that most of open source software exists largely without any support from the extractive big tech companies which rely on it. Perhaps the requirement should have been equity, not attribution.
