Perplexity刚被Reddit起诉,怎么转头就和Getty Images搞起了合作?

Perplexity突然开始向Getty Images买图授权了——可就在几个月前,它还被指公然盗用人家的照片。这哪是改过自新,分明是带着公关微笑的危机公关。这家初创公司曾直接从《华尔街日报》文章里整段搬运内容,连内嵌的Getty图片也没放过,当作自己的成果展示。现在却握手言欢,美其名曰‘视觉叙事’?别闹了。

LOL, they’re ‘discovering answers’ now? We’ve watched them scrape our communities for months. They don’t ‘discover’ — they vacuum. And they call linking back ‘attribution’? I call it damage control after getting caught.

哈哈,现在说是在‘发现答案’?我们可盯着他们爬取社区内容好几个月了。他们不是‘发现’,是吸尘式搬运。还把回链称作‘标注来源’?我称之为被抓包后的补救措施。

Look, every disruptor gets sued. Google scraped the web. OpenAI trained on books. This is the cost of building at speed. Perplexity is finally formalizing deals — that’s growth, not guilt.

听着,每个颠覆者都会被起诉。谷歌也爬过整个网络,OpenAI也用书籍训练过。快速发展就得付出代价。Perplexity终于开始签正式协议了——这是成长,不是认罪。

We’ve had the Publishers’ Program for over a year. Perplexity was already in it. This isn’t charity — it’s smart monetization. If your content’s going to be used, get paid and get credit.

我们的‘出版商计划’已运行一年多。Perplexity早就在里面了。这不是慈善——是聪明的变现策略。既然你的内容注定会被使用,不如收钱并拿到署名。

Attribution without compensation isn’t justice. We need systemic change, not PR stunts. These companies keep pushing the boundary until someone says no. Reddit stepping up matters.

只有标注没有补偿不算正义。我们需要系统性变革,而非公关作秀。这些公司不断试探边界,直到有人喊停。Reddit站出来很重要。

This whole situation mirrors Plato’s cave. Users see the shadows (scraped content) and believe it’s real. The chains? That’s the ad-driven attention economy.

整个情况宛如柏拉图的洞穴寓言。用户看到的是影子(爬取的内容),却以为是真实。锁链?那就是广告驱动的注意力经济。
