I read the title as two separate lines, which means that there would be extraterrestrial life!

Well, Mars is the only known planet where all life is machine live.

A judge has dismissed the majority of claims in a copyright lawsuit filed by developers against GitHub, Microsoft, and OpenAI. The AI didn't copywrong then?

Hmmm... Nope, I keep looking through couch cushions and checking my pockets.
I cannot find sympathy for throwing things to the cloud and then whining they became part of the water cycle.

that's getting into my list of answers to some people...  
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I think all it will take for a copyright case to go ahead is to show that these LLMs used code from a private repository. Then it becomes IP theft. Public repositories don't have this protection.

And that's going to be very difficult to find out and possibly even more difficult to prove.

And GitHub won't be able to do this. A github repository owner who can show that their code has always been in a private repository and that the LLM accessed it will be what it takes.

Come for the helpful PSA. Stay for the ‘Papermachete.’ Once again, bringing you all the hard-hitting research (beware the printed copy)

I can't imagine what this world would be if we just used all the money that gets wasted in such studies, political intiatives with less usefulness that a 0 in the left side and imilar kind of moronic usage of resources...

Old maps are notorious as papercutters. I worked in our university map room while in college and was apparently the library system's only student worker who didn't need a box of bandaids after working a shift in the map room.

Common sense and paying attention to what one does can make the difference

Bad article, no image of the Papermachete.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I bet the paper most likely to cut you is the kind that beats rock.

Huh. We build commercial ink-jet printing systems, where the paper is moving at up to 17 feet per second.
We can give you paper cuts that would make Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers blanch.

I got a paper cut on my finger last week at the ER when the nurse handed me the sheet of ID stickers. My wife was the patient, she is okay now.

Starting with .NET 9, we no longer include an implementation of BinaryFormatter in the runtime (.NET Framework remains unchanged). Because life is more than 1s and 0s
I had already reported it, but this includes a lot more information on why and what to do instead

Probably a big deal for a whole lot of Unity games but they lag behind c# versions a fair bit, iirc.
I don't understand why they couldn't fix it instead of chucking it. The MessagePack seems similar but more convoluted.
XML/JSON are great for some things but storing the state for some games, especially more complicated ones, that's just not at all cool.
I was floored when Rockstar revealed that processing JSON was murdering their load times for GTA V. Why is JSON involved? What kind of... no. No, no, no. Just... no.

And asking a second AI to double check if what the first AI said was true or not?
