Maven, a new social network backed by OpenAI's Sam Altman, found itself in a controversy today when it imported a huge amount of posts and profiles from the Fediverse, and then ran AI analysis to alter the content.

For me, more specifically, the problem is they took my data and made a tool to sell it back to me without paying me for it.

I have no real issue with current ai stuff, other than you're effectively taking our stuff and want us to pay you for doing so.

If they weren't freeloading on everyone, I suspect you'd have a lot less angry people.

This. If Maven offered me a stipend for life to have my content used (because they're not going to remove it in 3 or 6 months, right? once ingested it's there forever), then I would be far more open to at least discussing their terms.
