Atleast AI Shouldn’t Evolve VIA Random Harvested DATA!

 

Just alike PR + Recommendations == Trash! So as AI built on the foundation of random DATA, would eventually be an AI Trash!

Further, it seems, the companies are now updating in their agreements, terms & conditions too w.r.t. Artificial Intelligence Content for a better transparent system, which is a welcome step! Under Your (User) Content, they’re mentioning that the IP rights belongs to the USER only (if they truly hold); and further, under their artificial intelligence services, they’re including that the USER of their AI services, would not use the services for WEB Scraping, WEB Harvesting, WEB DATA Extraction, Weighing the Models, To Create/Train/Improve other AI Models; which is again a welcome step (and that I’ve also mentioned in my previous blogs), and as per the BERNE Convention & TRIPS Agreement, which would stop its wrongful Commercial Usage and also building of Clutter in the AI industry as well, which would help in building a better AI!

Opinion: E-Contracts && IP

 

The essential component of any contract is Consideration in return; unless and until it is restricted to charity, gifts, family affections etc. Now, unless any organization is registered as a non-profit, or, there’s a family affection involved; generally, there must be some kind of consideration involved; until further that isn’t in contravention to any laws of the land, for eg., in case of minors being the signatory, or, unlawful purposes, etc.

Now, if we converge both the E-Contracts && IPR; then there’s a relation that can be included, which I presume so far not being taken into account. We’ve mostly three types of E-Contracts: Shrink-Wrap; Browse- Wrap and Click-Wrap. The concerns are w.r.t. Click-Wrap & Browse-Wrap.

A Need to Re-Implementation of BERNE Convention!

 

Whether it comes to imitating in the mainstream; or the DATA on the Internet which is being used against the provisions of every single reciprocal treaties or TRIPS agreement; which was ought to have been restricted for personal & private use, R&D, academic only; YET, that has been used to train from AIs for 'commercial usage' (against Article 10 & 10bis, 11 ter, 12 of BERNE Convention), to, someone’s ancient knowledge been projected as someone else’s, as the latter being the architect of the same; or, whether the natural habitat & the presence of  its steroidal compounds in lab being extracted (albeit that would come under the ambit of Patents again), and then being claimed as the originator & inventor of the same.

EU’s AI ACT

 

Important Aspects of EU's AI ACT

Opinion

•          ChatGPT alike Generative AI are albeit not being considered as High Risk, but would’ve to adhere with the Copyright Regulations. And as the Copyright Act is governed by the BERNE Convention and there’s no Formality required, unlike in the case of WIPO’s Madrid, PCT & Hague; then that means ChatGPT and its cousins, friends, enemies; have to adhere by the Copyright Laws. This would be troubling for them. As they would’ve to publish the Data used for Training of AI models. If someone remembers, NYT sued ChatGPT because of the same reason. And as I also pointed out in my book and blogs that how algorithms being used by manipulation of DATA to index the pages in search; then that might also come under the ambit of this regulation.
