    Imagine if Midjourney wins and the only thing you need to legally pirate anything is to self host a LLM.

      AFAIK, you don’t actually need actually need an LLM to do it, as long as you do what Meta did and not upload anything at all. The one who did the copyright infringement is the one who supplied the data to you.

        Seeding illegal, leeching legal! This is not advice, be kind and seed!

          I imagine that they could find that leeching is illegal if you upload anything to any other torrent clients. I think Meta was claiming they were literally in the clear because they were being assholes and configuring their clients not to share at all.

          But yeah, keep your ratio above 1, or you’re a jerk.

      If Midjourney wins, other media corporations are going to host bigger and better LLMs and do the pirating. The “prompters” who think that they’re being fighting corporations are the best corporate tools.
