- Nick Clegg, former Meta executive and UK Deputy Prime Minister, has reiterated a familiar line when it comes to AI and artist consent.
- He said that any push for consent would “basically kill” the AI industry.
- Clegg added that the sheer volume of data that AI is trained on makes it “implausible” to ask for consent.
Using the same logic, it is “implausible” that we would not take money from those who have it and give it to the sheer volume of people who need it.
Oh. Suddenly it doesn’t work that way. Huh. Funny how that is.
It depends on how rich you are. CEOs have their own, reduced edition of the law.
