Also, I thought it was a very fitting time to share the project after the Disney+ ToS drama
Here is the Disney+ summary if you'd like to take a look: https://docdecoder.app/summary/disneyplus.com/terms-of-servi...
I had the idea for this project earlier in 2023. It seemed like an obvious use-case for GPT, and I was shocked that it didn't already exist.
Around August, I started watching black mirror (the TV series), and there's one episode called 'Joan is Awful'. The premise of the episode is a woman who signs up for Netflix (or Streamberry, as it's called in the show), accepts the terms of use, and goes about her life. When she gets home from work, she notices a new show on Streamberry called 'Joan is Awful'. Long story short, Streamberry's terms of use included a clause permitting them to digitally clone the user, and use their likeness in any way they want (in this case, in a defamatory TV show).
I remember finishing the episode with a huuuge drive to start the project because it really clicked how big the issue is - so big, that black mirror made an episode about it.
It effects everyone, everywhere, and we're all helplessly aware of it.
