schestowitz[TR2]"As a follow-up on my previous response, I have checked Proprietary Chaffbot Company patent monopoly publications and it appears Proprietary Chaffbot Company does not hold published applications outside the US. This is consistent with the strategy  depicted by Rose and the fact that the battleground is primarily in the US.<br />For OpenAI, the key issue at the moment is not patents but copyright monopoly and trade secrets : strive Oct 08 08:58

schestowitz[TR2]"As far as I know, LAION doesn't host the picture, so I don't understand how whatever interface they offer on their site could possibly contain a reproduction by LAION. To the extent that the pictures are reproduced during the creation process of their dataset, the reproductions are immediately and irrevocably deleted once the content extraction process is finished (according to LAION).<br /><br />I think what happens is that theirOct 08 13:37
schestowitz[TR2] demo web interface embeds (embedded? I can't get it to work) pictures from their original locations to showcase how nicely their dataset works. As far as the &quot;actual purpose&quot; of their dataset goes, however, LAION (only) provides a toolbox for mass-downloading the files (eg the &quot;img2dataset tool&quot;) to enable the training process; but it never supplies the images, only the URL/content pairs. Unlike the author of tOct 08 13:37
schestowitz[TR2]his post I don't think that any &quot;uploading [of] copies of protected content on the dataset&quot; ever actually occurred.<br /><br />Therefore any infringements that may have potentially occurred in the demo interface seem to be logically confined to the realm of the communications right. However, the only thing plaintiff asked for was to enjoin LAION from &quot;reproducing or causing others to reproduce the following photograpOct 08 13:37
