why do you provide a link to creative commons license? Ive seen such links few times on lemmy.

[-] gallopingsnail@lemmy.sdf.org 22 points 7 months ago

This guy licenses his comments under creative commons for some reason.

But whats the point of giving out a license along the comment? Are you giving permission to use your comment?

[-] k110111@feddit.de 1 points 7 months ago

Maybe it has to do with people stealing content to train AI? Atleast now if there is an opportunity to be a part of a lawsuit or smth they can claim they provided a licence. I dunno just a guess

[-] onlinepersona@programming.dev 0 points 7 months ago

For non-commercial use, yes. Aka no closed-source AI.

[-] verstra@programming.dev 2 points 7 months ago

Aaah, AI training data. That makes sense now

Same as foo, bar, baz, bizzle, and bebop 😋

I hate foo bar etc, seems like a joke that was cringe that has gone on too long. When I was trying to learn programming I was like what the actual hell does this shit mean?
