The double standards are so obnoxious. Corporations bent over backwards to lobby intellectual property into law, then they invent AI and suddenly everything turns into fair use.

Why? The resulting code generated by Claude is unfit for training, so any work product produced after the start of the subsidized program should be ignored.

Therefore it makes sense to charge them for the service after 6 months, no? Heh.

What do you mean it's unfit for training? It's a form of reinforcement learning; the end result has been selected based on whether it actually solved the need.

You need to be careful of the amount of reinforcement learning vs continued pretraining you do, but they already do plenty of other forms of reinforcement learning, I'm sure they have it dialed in.
