  • Yeah it’s not a particularly obscure character in some languages, so it’s not really going to affect an LLM at all, it’ll already know what to do with them. Hell you could write in MSN era fancy text using characters incorrectly and I’d not be surprised if an LLM had no issue decoding it.

    Heart’s kinda in the right place, but the only outcome is going to be confusion and frustration from humans.

    Edit: was curious about the assertion I made about MSN text

    Seemingly no trouble













  • I believe the sample I used is short enough to avoid litigation

    Hate to break it to you, but you could use a fraction of a second from another copyrighted work and if the owner can prove it, they can start legal action. There is no “short enough” that makes an uncleared sample legal to use, just increasingly plausible deniability (e.g. I didn’t sample that snare hit from you, I made it from scratch). If the sample is distinguishable enough, you can’t really make that case.

    If you’re serious about making money from music, you’re gonna want to start clearing your samples (or using royalty free ones) before it blows up in your face.

    FWIW though, unless you make something that gets particularly popular though, first action will probably just be a takedown request rather than a lawsuit. If you happen to make a track with an uncleared sample that goes on to become reasonably popular though, that’s when they’ll come for a big sum of money.
