Nick Clegg, former Meta executive and UK Deputy Prime Minister, has reiterated a familiar line when it comes to AI and artist consent.

He said that any push for consent would “basically kill” the AI industry.

Clegg added that the sheer volume of data that AI is trained on makes it “implausible” to ask for consent.

Then it should die.

This is like saying "if we had to ask for consent, the human race would die." Fucking creepy, rapist vibes.

No, it's not like saying that.

Please stop trying to use rape as a way to get an emotional response for something unrelated.
