The current capabilities of AI are built on the backs of open-source contributors and the unauthorized ingestion of copyrighted books. By keeping our code entirely open to AI web scrapers, we are giving away the tools that will eventually eliminate our jobs as programmers.
We urgently need to modify our Open Source licenses to prevent AI models from exploiting our work without permission or compensation. We need to protect our profession before it's too late. Has anyone started adopting licenses specifically designed to block AI training?
