Also: can we have an AI Machine Learning LLM whatever thing trained ONLY on consentually offered materials, text and art?
The bare minimum effort of "you must send your materials to us" rather than trawling the internet to steal whatever isn't nailed down.
Sure, spam bots and nuisance or malicious submitters, but most won't be. Could always have a holding pen area of like 2 or 3 months before adding to training data.

Proactively request opt-outs as well, to make filtering a tiny bit easier?

"When we talk about the unfair practices and #harm done by training #largelanguagemodels, we usually talk about how they were trained on other people’s creative work without permission. But this is an ongoing problem that’s just getting worse.

If you’re using the products powered by these attacks, you’re part of the problem.

Don’t pretend it’s somehow being technologically open-minded to continuously search for nails to hit with the latest "#AI” hammers."

”Scaling has run out…; models still don’t reason reliably…; the financial bubble may be bursting; there still ain’t no GPT-5; Sam Altman can’t be trusted; an overreliance on unreliable LLMs…has indeed gotten the world into deep doodoo. … LLMs are not the way. We definitely need something better.”

@skribe Conversely, the cost of printing, distribution, and storage puts up a barrier to spamming people on other continents with mass quantities of low value slop.

Just think through the logistics of a hostile Eurasian state sending a mass quantity of printed materials to Australia or North America.

Or, for that matter, a hostile North American state sending a mass quantity of printed materials to Europe or Asia.

You would either need:–

a) At least one printing press on each continent;
b) You could try shipping the magazines, but they'd be a month out of date when they arrive; or
c) You could try flying them overseas, but that would be very expensive very quickly.

That's before you worry about things like delivery drivers (or postage), and warehouses.

These are less of an issue for books than they are for newspapers or magazines.

And if a particular newspaper or magazine is known to be reliable, written by humans, researched offline, and the articles are not available online, then there's potentially value in people buying a physical copy.
