Okay but why? It's not like it's personal Data or something. I don't get why people are mad ._.
EDIT: Ofcourse you can downvote me but I'd really like an answer, tho. The article is not very clear about this.
Because it's original work they contributed for free. Lending others that kind of expertise and time, just that it get's used by a machine learning algorithm, which aims to reproduce this, without giving it back to them or the community in a similar free manner, feels violating.
Apart from that, creators feel ownership over their content and it feels wrong not to be asked what happens to it. (Although those probably wouldn't – or shouldn't – use SO anyway, as their content gets commercialised anyway by giving it SO for free.)
Aaaaah okay that is somehting I can understand, thank you!
I get the feelings, but once they added the content in SO, it was no longer their content.
all posts were supposedly licensed under creative commons
Do they have the non-commercial/no-derivative clause?
It gives worse answers and hallucinates a lot, problems specific to the model's design and not how much training data it gets. Even if it did work, it would be taking jobs away from actual programmers. It's a total net negative, users have nothing to benefit from this. Plus, since this is a community of programmers, they're all very much aware of these limitations and the lack of ethics of OpenAI.
Except from the “taking Jobs part” I can understand you, thank you :D
