Jumping spiders are the tigers of the mm scale. They jump and pounce, they stare at you and stalk their prey, they carefully plan their attack from a strategic vantage point, they are cute, furry and pettable...so long as you are at least twice as large.

Best. Buds. Having a parade together in Brest, 1939. Getting betrayed is what you get for making deals with nazis. #leopardsatemyface

If I understand you correctly, read more history. the nazis invaded Poland together with the USSR on two fronts (as, you know, best buds), hard to botch that.

When the nazis invaded France...it was the French who fucked up...the nazis didn't.

Yes, starting stupid wars and botching them in front of the whole world makes you vulnerable.

I realized like you that it is not the content or the actions, it is a brand that appeals to their emotions (and the grown-ups too who got conditioned to react to a type of branding over the years). It's just like selling an Adidas.

And it's tragic, because he stands against everything they could ever gain...like an opioid...which reminds me of the Shady Vance quote:

In 2016 and 2017, Vance, then best-known for penning the best-selling book “Hillbilly Elegy” said Trump was “cultural heroin” and “just another opioid” for Middle America.

This is not like reading a book from a library...unless you want to force the LLM to only train one book per day and keep no copies after that day.

"Buy high, sell low" is a great way to launder money, along with real estate (and the art market). Things Donny is an expert in. You don't bankrupt a casino without wanting to.

Some may see him as a "counterculture"...thumbing the nose at establised rules youngsters naturally want to rebel against through causing outrage and stupid jokes. It's like any other stupid manufactured fad in that respect.

This 20-year-old documentary about marketing to teens sort of reminds me of it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0tYRoiJvhJ4&list=PL_pPc6-qR9ZwlDyyk6o-X_gib47lpqlGP&index=15&pp=iAQB but now applied to ideas in the internet instead of products.

The matter is not LLMs reproducing what they have learned, it is that they didn't pay for the books they read, like people are supposed to do legally.

This is not about free use, this is about free access, which at the scale of an individual reading books is marketed as "piracy"...at the scale of reading all books known to man...it's onmipiracy?

We need some kind of deal where commercial LLMs have to pay a rent to a fund that distributes that among creators or remain nonprofit, which is never gonnna happen, because it'll be a bummer for all the grifters rushing into that industry.
