AI Czar David Sacks praises report of Judge Alsup’s fair use decision. Does not mention pirated books ruling.
AI Czar David Sacks praised a news report of Judge Alsup’s decision on fair use in Bartz v. Anthropic.
Sacks sees fair use as essential to the U.S. to winning the AI race against China.
The report, however, did not mention Judge Alsup’s ruling against Anthropic for its building a library of pirated books it downloaded from the Internet.
AI Czar David Sacks called Judge Alsup’s fair use decision in Bartz v. Anthropic a “positive ruling for AI.”
The excepted portion of the Reuters news report that Sacks commented did not include Judge Alsup’s stern rebuke of Antrhopic’s use of pirated books, however. So, it’s unclear what Sacks’ view is with respect to that part of the decision, which was reported by Reuters as well.
But Sacks did repeat his longstanding view that the U.S. needs to win the AI race against China. And he thinks fair use is crucial.
Positive ruling for AI. There must be a fair use concept for training data or models would be crippled. China is going to train on all the data regardless, so without fair use, the U.S. would lose the AI race. https://t.co/FO9IsNfyAZ
David Sacks on what “winning” the AI race looks like for the US and China 🇺🇸🇨🇳 — Mass adoption of their tech stack (80-90% market share) — Achieving an advantage so decisive that they cannot be leapfrogged back @Jason: “If China wins the AI race, what does it mean to win?” David Sacks: “To me, it would mean that they achieve a decisive advantage in AI such that we can’t leapfrog them back.” “An example of this might be something like 5G, where Huawei leapfrogged us, got to 5G first and disseminated it through the world.” “This is where we have to change our mindset towards diffusion.” “I would define winning as the whole world consolidates around the American tech stack.” “They use American hardware in data centers that again, are fundamentally powered by American technology.” “Just look at market share. If we have like 80 to 90% market share that’s winning.” “If (China has) 80% market share, then we’re in big trouble.” #ai#tech#whitehouse#america#china#dc#learn#allinpodcast#allin#clips
