@EricLengyel OMG yes! Thank you for giving this to everyone <3

@Forbearance@mastodon.xyz @protowlf@mastodon.gamedev.place While large companies and their lawyers will argue otherwise, slurping up all this code and ignoring the licenses it comes with is effectively stealing it.

@Forbearance@mastodon.xyz @protowlf@mastodon.gamedev.place The training data is full of open-source code that has software licenses attached to it (GPL, MIT, etc.). These licenses have terms for what you can or cannot do with the source of software, or things you must do to be in compliance. For example, the MIT license (one of the most "generous" popular licenses) requires people making use of the code to distribute a copy of the license alongside their software. That's similar to giving credit in the art world.

@LukaTheMouse@gamedev.lgbt Adorable!!! And I learned fun rat facts! In case you're planning updates, there's a small typo in question 8 (does -> do)

From the linked drivel:

Create original algorithmic art rather than copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.

Oh so now they understand that the plagiarism machine doesn't respect intellectual property? 🤔

@Forbearance@mastodon.xyz @protowlf@mastodon.gamedev.place my thoughts exactly 💯

@rovarma@mastodon.gamedev.place @aras@mastodon.gamedev.place excellent read, thank you for explaining all this in an approachable and easy to read format! 👏👏

@bitbraindev I think AKG products look pretty cool - not sure if that will be your jam https://www.akg.com/professional-headphones I've been using K240 MkII for 15 years
