  • Thanks to everyone that has replied, all fair points. When you use (read, view, listen to…) copyrighted material you’re subject to the licensing rules, no matter if it’s free (as in beer) or not.

    This means that quoting more than what’s considered fair use is a violation of the license, for instance. In practice a human would not be able to quote exactly a 1000 words document just on the first read but “AI” can, thus infringing one of the licensing clauses.

    Some licensing on copyrighted material is also explicitly forbidding to use the full content by automated systems (once they were web crawlers for search engines)

    Basically all these possibilities or actual licensing infringements would require a negotiation between the involved parties.


  • This process is akin to how humans learn by reading widely and absorbing styles and techniques, rather than memorizing and reproducing exact passages.

    Many people quote this part saying that this is not the case and this is the main reason why the argument is not valid.

    Let’s take a step back and not put in discussion how current “AI” learns vs how human learn.

    The key point for me here is that humans DO PAY (or at least are expected to…) to use and learn from copyrighted material. So if we’re equating “AI” method of learning with humans’, both should be subject to the the same rules and regulations. Meaning that “AI” should pay for using copyrighted material.
















  • It is possible nowadays: I’m hosting quite a few services on an 5 years old Android. Just with Termux, no root required. Of course connectef it’s just to the internal network due to all the security concerns mentioned in the post.

    To solve all the bandwidth/connection issues, I’ve bought a usbc-ethernet dongle that works like a charm.

    To mitigate battery issues I’ve limited the charging to 85%.

    I would never host Jellyfin there, but with webdav and Kodi I can get my media served easily to all my devices at home


  • Until one week ago I was using an old Samsung A20 with good results. I moved to a mini PC as I wanted to host Immich server and I felt it was too much for the phone (it might not be the case though…)

    A quick extract from an old post of mine on what I was running: https://lemmy.world/comment/354199

    Software: Termux (android app) SSH (OpenSSH in Termux) Rclone (in Termux) Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Prowlarr (in proot-distro) Transmission (in proot-distro) Kavitha (in proot-distro) Podgrab (in proot-distro) Ombi (in proot-distro) ntfy (in proot-distro) Filebrowser (in proot-distro) Vaultwarden (in proot-distro) Homer with lighttpd (in proot-distro)

    TLDR: Go for it! Use Termux with proot-distro to avoid headaches
