"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Link to the court ruling from the article (in German): https://the-decoder.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/26_O_869_26_begl_Abschrift_Urteil_v_28_05_2026_Geschwarzt_Geschwarzt_Geschwarzt.pdf

Found the article on HN. The article itself is meh, but I couldn't find any other site reporting on it.

As it should. Google is factually responsible for the resulting slop and should be legally responsible for it.

I hope for the one-two punch of:

  1. they're legally responsible for anything the slop machine says
  2. the slop is machine generated, so it isn't copyrightable

Also, we got a third benefit if this ruling too. Google said, on the record, that it shouldn't be responsible because you can't trust anything that the slop-generator generates. Having that on the record could also be useful in a lot of other lawsuits.
