@GaryMarcus @Rahll He's correct though.

The user of the AI is to blame if they ask the AI to reproduce a copyrighted work.

Feel free to advocate for changing the law, but that's what it says today.

I honestly don’t know if I can keep using Microsoft products when their AI CEO says stuff like this.

The statement constitutes public discourse as it engages in a substantive discussion about the ethical and legal implications of AI and copyright, which are significant public issues. The tone is critical but not overtly hostile, aiming to challenge the views expressed in the thread.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not appear to cause harm directly, but the critical tone could be perceived as dismissive or condescending, which might indirectly cause harm. [-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects the privacy and dignity of others, as it does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech. [+1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement attempts to promote understanding by pointing out the difference between originality and theft in the context of AI, but it could be more empathetic and compassionate in its delivery.
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive criticism by questioning the quality of thought in the thread, but it borders on a personal attack by implying a decline in the interlocutor's intellectual capabilities. [-1]
  5. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds the principles of free speech and uses the platform to discuss a significant public issue, but the tone could be more respectful and constructive. [+1]
