Llama 4 faces a looming lawsuit. Meta’s next-gen AI was reportedly trained on thousands of “worthless” copyrighted books, igniting a brand-new AI copyright war. In this episode of They Might Be Self-Aware, hosts Hunter Powers and Daniel Bishop unpack the explosive debate around Meta’s Llama-4 model, what it means for future Llama releases, and why the stakes for creators (and lawyers) just shot through the roof. We also dive into: • Would you sell your voice & likeness to an AI for $10k? • California’s plan to let AI write bar-exam questions • Whether robot judges and AI police could ever be trusted • The strangest deepfakes we’ve seen this week Whether you’re an AI skeptic, enthusiast, or just curious about tech’s wild frontiers, this episode is packed with sharp analysis, heated banter, and the urgent ethical questions surrounding Meta’s Llama models and beyond.
