When you can’t beat em, sue em. It’s the American way.
So that means that Microsoft will pay compensation to us, right?
“You can’t steal that public data! We stole it first!”
And considering that’s exactly what Microsoft did to Apple with point and click, what irony!
They both stole point and click from Xerox if my memory serves me correctly
yeah xerox invented the GUI and mouse
Actually, it was invented by Douglas Engelbart in Stanford in the 60s
https://dougengelbart.org/content/view/162/000/
Xerox (re)made it for the PC in the 80s.
Ah TIL! I didn’t know it originated elsewhere.
So while it’s true Apple and Microsoft got the idea from Xerox, Xerox didn’t originate it.
Apple did pay Xerox for it if I’m remembering right
Yep, Apple paid with shares (More specifically, the right to buy $1 million dollars worth at the initial share price) which, according to a share calculator I just tried, would be worth nearly $328 million these days, I wonder if Xerox kept them or offloaded them early.
Considering Xerox was utterly uninterested in any of the tech they had, it’s worked out well.
They didn’t steal it from Smith & Wesson?
Oh really? **Rabbit hole unlocked

The relevant part of Pirates of Silicon Valley. After which you should watch the whole thing. It’s fan fiction, but it’s the best explanation of what happened between Apple and Microsoft leading into the 1990s.
It’s no crime to steal from a thief.
How could it be better when they just stole everything? The fact that its better basically proves that its not stolen.
What, you mean like Microsoft, uh, OpenAI did?
Yep, NOW it’s a problem, though! Because it’s someone else doing the same thing, someone who isn’t part of the human centipede starting at Trump’s colon.
What’s the game plan if they did?
Trade restrictions?
China already proved those did fuck all to stop them from developing their own model.
Ducking knew this ai bubble would burst sooner or later, just glad we can finally get on with it now.
- Name the company involved a military asset
- Forbid US companies from hosting the models
- Pressure foreign companies to not work with them
I ducking knew it too, I’ve been a long for the ride though. The models still do have some niche applications where they’re actually useful.
This whole thing with OpenAI and Microsoft whinging about fair play is truly laughable though. What clowns.
As a side note, it took a few tries to write ducking, my keyboard kept correcting it to fucking. We’re definitely 2 different people. Lol.
When a writer copies someone else’s work without cites or compensation, it’s called “plagiarism.” But when an AI does it, it’s called “LLM training.”
When a reader reads someone else’s work that’s called “reading”. But when an AI does it, it’s called “training”.
Unless that AI is not OpenAI, then it’s “plagiarism” still.
lol, I love it. I’m thinking about paying for DeepSeek even though I hate AI bullshit, just to spite all the panicking AI tech scammers. This has seriously made my week, the amount of copium they are inhaling is insanely funny :D
Use duck duck go ai chat https://duck.ai/
Isn’t the OpenAI one they offer the same one as the one provided at https://chatgpt.com/ without login? So probably something not as impactful.
Or do they share their unlimited subscription?
If I had money to spend, I would get a ChatGPT subscription since they lose money for every account.
I had a subscription but I barely used it, maybe twice a day with no complex stuff. I don’t get how it’s possible to lose money on users like me. I finally cancelled because of the price.
They don’t lose money on users like you.
So the suggestion from @heavydust@sh.itjust.works will just increase their revenue 🙂
The whole startup industry rely on investors to cover for their costs for years, while they work on a loss, in order to obtain a bigger market share. Look at Netflix, Facebook, WhatsApp, etc.
So buying an account you are increasing their market share.
But feel free to use Mistral, Deepseek, etc. that would be better
Just rent some server space instead and run your open-weights model of choice
You have to use it a lot. From what I can tell that’s their problem, they priced unlimited access low based on some numbers they pulled out their arse and then were all shocked Pikachu face when people used it and unlimited amount.
That’s only for the 200$ one, and if you use it constantly, no?
Time to talk about data rights :)
You mean they ripped off the copyrighted material that OpenAI ripped off?
we stole it fair and square
What data? they one OpenAI illegally obtained first?!
What the fuck is Microsoft getting involved for?! Maybe concentrate on not providing shitty fucking software fuck heads!
They have a large stake in OpenAI, last I checked.
Oh fair, i didnt know that. But still, fuck Microsoft.
If I stole from the thief, is it really stealing?
- some Philosopher probably
In Brazil, there’s a rhymed saying: “ladrão que rouba ladrão tem 100 anos de perdão”, it translates to “a thief that steals from a thief has 100 years of forgiveness”
It’s a common proverb in Portuguese, not just in Brazil.
Lol its like fucking lavrov from fucking russia screaming “this is against international law” when Europe froze their assets.
Bro… US reaction here is so pathetic…
The behavior is indicative of a bigger issue. They really do think only they are allowed to cheat and steal to win lol
The irony is overwhelming
An irony curtain.
