Yes...

The document notes how Nvidia reached out to Anna’s Archive, stating that it’s “exploring including Anna’s Archive in pre-training data for [Nvidia’s] LLMs.

“Internal documents show competitive pressures drove Nvidia to piracy,” states the complaint, also revealing that before proceeding with the access, Anna’s Archive informed the company that its content was “illegally acquired and maintained.”

Despite this, Nvidia proceeded with the piracy, which resulted in the company receiving “millions of pirated copyrighted books,” or “roughly 500 terabytes of data.”

Because these "assets" are at best hemorrhaging billions of dollars per year, and are also the result of total cultural strip mining. Why would I, as a taxpayer, want to take over a massive, and massively unprofitable business?

I think it's naive to believe that the government will seize these companies without without a huge amount of taxpayer cash winding up in the hands of big tech companies and their owners.

Let failing businesses fail. Leave the taxpayers out of it

How can they "open source" other people's work?

The data that they've trained on wasn't theirs to begin with.

Absolutely fucking not.

Nationalizing AI companies represents nothing more than a big tech bailout, leaving the American taxpayers holding the bag for the grandiose excesses, industrialized IP theft, and borderline fraudulence of some of the richest and most powerful corporations in modern society.

Hell no. No bailout for big AI.

They stole everything they have from the people, and if they are too stupid to figure out how to turn unprecedented plagiarism on a global scale into a viable business plan, then they deserve nothing more than to fail outright.

One look at the characters faces show me the same generic generative AI slop eyes and expressions I've seen a million and a half times now. On top of that, some very unnatural looking lines.

Just overall a very low effort pun about AI with an equally low effort slop illustration, in my opinion.

Cringe slopcore.

They're planning on it. They want nothing more than to go public and leave retail investors and retirement plans holding the bag.

Call me cynical, but I think this is an attempt to do the bare minimum in an effort to preempt laws being put in place.

Borrowed money, creative accounting, stolen data.
