I appreciate the thought that Adam is putting into omg.lol’s stance on generative AI. I’m still formulating my own personal policy, which of course is different than a policy for a platform. Given how fast things are changing, I feel an obligation to use all of the tools a lot. I don’t believe you can formulate informed positions on things by taking other people’s word for how you should think about them. You have to use them and do some soul searching of your own. One thing that is non-negotiable is that we MUST figure out how to get artists paid for their work. I fear it will ultimately be the pennies music artists see from streaming, but it can’t be nothing. The central issue of provenance must be solved. It’s a difficult problem, but then so is getting a computer to “think”.
