Based on the text of the complaint, no, they're not claiming that. Rather, they're claiming that pursuant to their terms of service Anthropic didn't have the right to scrape that data. If they were claiming they owned the data they'd be adding copyright infringement claims to their complaint, but they didn't. Their claims are Breach of Contract, Unjust Enrichment, Trespass to Chattels (read: your bots damaged us), Tortious Intereference (read: Reddit has an obligation to respect the privacy of its users, Anthropic knows that, and this interferes with that contractual obligation), and Unfair Competition.

Much like Apple v. Epic I consider both parties to be assholes and hope that both of them lose.

Also remember that archive.org keeps things forever.

No they don't. Dubious legal complaints frequently result in URLs being excluded from the Wayback Machine. It's extremely irritating.

the biological processes of aging unfold faster in dogs because they live such short lives

....so dogs age faster because they age faster? And this dipshit is a CEO?

Accuracy? Where we're going we don't need accuracy.

Clearly this is the natural progression from the Twitch hottub meta.

...any day now, you guys. Seriously. Just you wait.

These books are never getting finished.

If they're sitting there looking at their phone, it's one of two things: Either they're goofing off, or they're in a neighborhood with next to no reception and hence when they hit "I've arrived" on their app it pauses and churns endlessly while trying to communicate this fact, blocking them from moving on to the next screen where they can see and scan what packages they need.

When they're rummaging about that can be one of two things: Either they're grossly overloaded with packages so everything is out of order (which happens a lot during peak season, i.e. Oct/Nov/Dec), or they left everything in the totes rather than spreading them out on their shelves for easy retrieval. Note that these two possibilities are not mutually exclusive. Actually, now that I think about it, it's also possible these are the same drivers fiddling with their phones, and hence they can't see which packages they need by the sort number, so they're rummaging around looking for anything for that address while waiting for the app to load. By contrast, drivers who use the electric vans generally don't have this problem because they've got three levels of shelving so there's plenty of room to get organized. Amazon Flex drivers (the guys who use their own vehicles) may or may not have this problem depending on how big the flex route is.

These are problems that have relatively straightforward solutions, but that would involve hiring more drivers, and software engineers who didn't get their degree out of a box of crackerjacks. While that may result in a better customer experience, it would impose greater shipping costs on amazon, so naturally they won't do that.

Just FYI, but Amazon already has turn-by-turn directions in their driver's app. Adding "last-mile" directions isn't going to help because the ultimate source of most complaints is either drivers ignoring customer instructions because Amazon overloaded them with stops and they have to take shortcuts to complete their route, or the customer gave impossible instructions which the driver tried to resolve in the best way possible but the customer was still pissed. There are few cases where turn-by-turn directions are needed, and usually this is resolved by either just putting those in customer notes (which appears on the app), or compromising by having some place well-marked to drop. Put simply: This thing isn't going to do what they say it does.

What this does do, however, is set Amazon up for various potential lawsuits ... because I'm quite certain nobody wants people constantly surveilling their homes (remember when people referred to Google Glass wearers as Glassholes? Same energy), and I'm quite certain drivers will regard any attempt to impose this upon them as discriminatory.

As far as training AI, well, good luck with that. Attempts to automate the workforce run up against the iron clad law of economics that us fleshbags are still cheaper than robots... even for something like quadrotor drones (primarily because they can't carry very much and have extremely limited range).

Funny how shareholders who have a vote aren't on that list.

It's funny how all of a sudden the left is sticking up for "private corporations". When did this paradigm shift begin?

When the left gained power.

I mean, if you want to go through this discussion pretending he's something he's not because you refuse to ask questions... maybe Tim Sweeney isn't the only problematic character around here?
