'Feels a bit like an invasion of privacy': Australians react to Meta's plans to use posts to train AI
www.abc.net.au
If you're among the majority of Australians with Facebook or Instagram accounts, your social activity on those platforms is about to start training Meta's artificial intelligence (AI) tools — and if you live in Australia, you can't say no.

    I am tired of my information making companies lots of money instead of me.(privacy issues aside) Shame you can’t copyright yourself at birth.

      Everything you make is already copyrighted by default. Copyright is limited in what it lets you do, however. AI training likely isn’t restricted by it.

      Well, nothing is free. If you aren’t paying with money, you are paying with data or time, which may or may not be more valuable to you than money.

          I know, but not paying to begin with created the incentive to have such an infrastructure to spy on people, even if these people decide to pay. And I am not saying it’s users’ fault.

          You’ve listed some kinda vague concepts, family and friendship may be free, but their help and attention costs money and time. As for sunshine, that costs energy, atoms are fused into other atoms to produce the light, so while we aren’t paying it, it is getting “spent”. Peace is furthest away from free, just look at how much the wars to restore peace cost
