From the “source” (the Japanese one, not the broken link at the bottom):

AIによる解析・学習についての現段階の日本の著作権法上の見解を確認、権利侵害の懸念も政府に訴えた一方、生成・出力段階での出力自体の著作権の扱いや元データの著作権の扱いが未確認ですので今後質疑等で確認する予定です。

生成系AIの活用、著作権者を守るための新たな規制が必要だ

It’s an analysis of the current copyright law in Japan. It does not mean that they won’t update the law eventually. What a terrible article.

It’s just so accurate at describing what’s going on everywhere

Do you mean the time when YouTube’s UI was built using a pre-standardized version of the Shadow DOM API, and had to polyfill it in Firefox? If so, that was tech debt, not artificially slowing down page loads for Firefox on purpose. It was a tradeoff that let non-Chrome users use YouTube until they finally upgraded a year or two later.

If that’s not it, I’d love to see what you’re referring to.

I’ve been using it a lot less recently because GPT-4 has just been spitting out gibberish code. They really nerfed it.
