What the hell is this non-sequitur?
What do browser caches have to do with Midjourney servers and training weights?
I get that you wanna change the subject. But I dunno if it’s because you don’t understand my argument, or if you’ve realized that my argument is solid and therefore you have no actual counterargument.
The copy that people care about are the webservers. That’s why when you run Bittorrent, MPAA or RAII sue the people serving the data. Not the people who use the data. Have you followed any copyright case in the last two or three decades? In this case, it’d be a copyright case vs Midjourney servers.
I really do not believe midjourney is storing all the files on the Internet in a humongous database. They are just exposing the AI to them for training just like you expose your computer to them when you visit with your web browser. I’m happy to be wrong about this, but I’m just not convinced. Please try to keep your temper.
Are you sure?
The training weights can literally recreate images its been trained on. That makes them a humongous database, albeit with lossy compression. They aren’t replicated exactly, but they are replicated enough that I’m confident that these “Joker” images passes as copyright infringement before a jury (ie: is substantially similar).
I understand why you’re saying that, but I personally don’t agree. As AIs face legal challenges, maybe your opinion will be adopted, we’ll see.
