Do you use #Flickr? Your photos may have been used by #IBM for facial recognition training #privacy #machinelearning https://t.co/Kxa0Mv2qF1

I respond! I think this is a far more accurate, less sensational article, but I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have, though we weren't involved directly. https://t.co/TOgBODxbF1

I imagine it was the NBC News report that prompted me to write this story: IBM stirs controversy by using Flickr photos for AI facial recognition https://t.co/zR2jdNps94

And Creative Commons has just issued a response: "copyright is not a good tool to protect individual privacy, to address research ethics in AI development, or to regulate the use of surveillance tools employed online." https://t.co/XEFe5z4TWL

Creative Commons and IBM seem to both be hedging their bets and hoping that somewhere between CC licenses and "fair use" that at least the copyright aspect of using Flickr photos to train facial recognition systems is covered https://t.co/g0oc2BmYDO

This is a very good statement from Creative Commons on the facial recognition database fiasco. Copyright may be the most familiar framework we have for information regulation, but it can't do everything https://t.co/9KJYEVdzY1 pic.twitter.com/kjWdjTdBg6

IBM using Creative Commons photos from Flickr for its facial recognition training is one of those things we need to be talking about.

It really is something these license could not possibly have anticipated.#designethics https://t.co/XSsNKoJVyZ

Maybe that good news story about Flickr "protecting" Creative Commons images in the latest acquisition is because CC images are more valuable to corporations like IBM?

[버지] IBM, Flickr 게시 사진을 얼굴 인식 훈련에 썼다는 사실을 알리지 않음https://t.co/HJ3aeCB1p6
허락도 받지 않고 숨겼던 것으로 알려짐. 사진사에게는 허락을 구했겠지만 그렇다고 초상권이 사라지는건 아닌데, IBM은 허락받은 공개된 이미지만 신원확인된 연구원에게 열어줬다고 밝혔습니다.

크리에이티브 커먼즈 AI 문제. 문화창달을 위해 저작권을 느슨하게 풀어준 얼굴 사진이 기계 학습에 쓰였을 때의 쎄한 느낌. 저작권은 프라이버시를 커버하지 못하고, 인공지능 시대에는 프라이버시 이외에도 이러한 정책 공백이 분명 더 있을 듯.
