If Meta win this lawsuit, does it mean I can download some open source AI and claim that "These million 4k Blu-ray ISOs I torrented was just used to train my AI model"?
Heck, if how you use the downloaded stuff is a factor, I can claim that I just torrented those files and never looked at them. It is more believable than Meta's argument too, because, as a human, I do not have enough time to consume a million movies in my lifetime (probably, didn't do the math) unlike AIs.
But who am I kidding, I fully expect to be sued to hell and back if I were actually to do that.
If you could survive discovery and defend any other uses evident on your home devices....
But why does that strike me as really unlikely?
