davidstraussjgay: don't you work for FSF?18:13
jgayyeah18:14
jgayi was just joking around18:14
davidstraussjgay: then i guess i'm not too surprised ;-)18:14
jgaywe have free bios, too18:14
jgayon most of our machines anyhow18:14
jgaystill a few more to replace18:14

dharthiya. who might I ask about copyright and licencing for extracted metadata? (grammatical parses of works under copyright, web pages, in this case)22:03
paulproteusdhart, What's up?22:05
paulproteusYou want to do grammatical parsing to detect a license?22:06
dhartwe want to parse entire documents, then publish the parses.22:06
paulproteusOh, I see.22:06
paulproteusI can chat with you about what I know about copyright as a non-laywer techie, but you probably should get legal advice.22:09
paulproteusAs I understand things, it hinges on if the parses are derivative works of the originals.22:09
dhartso technically we'd be reproducing content under copyright (although this might be technically avoided by some silly tokenizing at the word level), plus the metadata which is probably not technically a derived work, but not a wholly original work either.22:09
* paulproteus nods22:09
paulproteusBut OTOH it's machine-generated.22:10
dhartyes, it's a very grey area!22:10
paulproteusAnd at least in the US, machine-generated works can't be copyrighted.22:10
paulproteusWhat a pain.22:10
dhartyes, it would be all machine generated.22:10
paulproteusDo you know what the licensing status of e.g. the Brown Corpus is?22:10
paulproteusAnd the Wall Street Journal parse corpus?22:10
paulproteusPresumably you could follow what they did as a baseline.22:10
dhartthere's a parse corpus of WSJ?22:10
paulproteusYeah...22:10
paulproteusAre you in NLP, or what? (-:22:10
paulproteushttp://crl.ucsd.edu/corpora/ - it's part of the Penn Treebank.22:11
paulproteusAdmittedly my prof in college went to upenn.edu.22:11
dhartyeah, but I'm just on the fringes. :-) probably others on the RelEx team know of this work.22:12
dhartinteresting.. I'm googling for the raw parse data now...22:13
paulproteusLooks like those are under restrictive licenses.22:13
*** mlinksva has joined #cc22:14
jibotmlinksva is Mike Linksvayer and from Creative Commons22:14
dhartI presume you mean the original WSJ works22:14
paulproteusI mean the parse trees too.22:15
dhartwe're looking at starting with publishing parses of the Wikipedia main article namespace22:15
paulproteusThat'd be easy!22:15
paulproteusJust comply with GFDL and you'd be golden.22:15
paulproteusBTW, in San Francisco there's a startup called... something that is doing that too.22:16
paulproteusPower Set22:16
dhartyes, that's easy in the case of WP, not so easy in the case of everything else22:16
dhartPowerSet, Cognition.22:16
paulproteusAgreed...22:16
dhartrumor mill is that Microsoft is buying powerset22:16
paulproteusI won't comment.22:16
dhartwe're affiliated with Wikia Search, so would expand out from WP using URLs dispatched from their Nutch22:17
paulproteusAh, interesting.22:17
dhartI'm thinking about just slapping a CC license on the metadata, and simply complying with any takedown requests22:18
paulproteusKeep in mind CC licenses don't apply to uncopyrightable data.22:19
paulproteusIn my opinion, you should make a clear note that the metadata (the parse trees) are uncopyrightable, and treat them as such.22:19
dhartyes, so the catch is we'd need to attempt to claim copyright on machine-generated metadata, which is questionable22:19
dhartthat's an interesting option too22:20
paulproteusYou could also urge people to cite you!22:20
paulproteusBut you would be hard-pressed to enforce it through copyright anyway, so I figure it's nicer to just not claim to try.22:20
dhartright, it may be possible to attach some type of pseudo-license to use of the 'package' (ARC files)22:21
paulproteusYeah, an expression of those parse trees could perhaps be copyrightable.22:22
dhart(although I believe WS isn't too concerned about attribution)22:22
paulproteusSo it's easy then! (-:22:23
dhartthat was my thinking. actually, each sentence will yield 4 ranked parses, since grammar parsing is not a exact science.22:23
dhartso even though it's a machine generated expression, we could try it on (the copyright, that is)22:24
dhartI'm intensely interested in this area, and would like to challenge the notion that machine generated content is uncopyrightable (we're ultimately working toward AI, after all!)22:26
paulproteusBut who would own the (C) of the AI-generated work?22:27
paulproteusDo you pay royalties now to that AI?22:27
paulproteusHow can that make sense?22:27
paulproteusHow do you create incentives for that AI to produce more work using copyright?22:27
dhartall interesting questions which would imply ultimately treating particular AI instances as legal entities (unless they can be 'owned' by another legal entity)22:33
paulproteusThe key is this:22:33
paulproteusHow can copyright create incentives for an AI to produce more work?22:33
dhartanother interesting option is to place AI generated works in the public domain22:33
paulproteusYes! (-:22:33
dhartdo AIs [not work to further human motivations] need that sort of incentive?22:34
dhartthat might well be an easy answer for anything associated with the WS project.22:34
dharter, that's '[not working...'22:35
paulproteusIf they don't need the incentive, according the US law there is no reason to grant them the copyright.22:39
paulproteusNaturally I don't know the Australian legal basis of copyright.22:39
*** [mharrison] has quit IRC22:41
dhartthat's what I'm reading into it too, particularly since all that's being generated can be interpreted as just some abstract mathematical graphs (which even include an element of stochasticity)22:42
dharthttp://www.jstor.org/pss/157597822:42
dhartfor legal purposes all this stuff will be US-based (OpenCog/RelEx is funded by US entities, Wikia is a US company, datacenter is in US, etc.)22:44
dhartdeclaring the metadata public domain is looking likely (until someone claims otherwise, of course!)22:44
paulproteusInteresting.22:45
paulproteusI'm going to head out for now, but I'll look at that jstor link later!22:46
dhartokay, that's for the chat!22:47
ajbrookspaulproteus: a pink box loads up on the map for me23:08
ajbrookswait, I just refreshed23:08
ajbrooksit's looking good now23:08
ajbrooksall is well :)23:09
paulproteusajbrooks, Thanks for checking my work. (-:23:13
