If you condemn Russia’s ‘preventive’ attacks on Ukrainian cities, including hospitals & journalists, but don’t condemn Israel’s ‘preventive’ attacks on Iranian cities, including hospitals & journalists, then you’re not actually opposed to Russia’s attacks.

This training dataset includes videos which use work I've written. Annoying? Not sure how to feel about it. Like yeah I gave license for what I wrote to be used with attribution, but I haven't ever seen an AI project give what I'd call satisfactory attribution.
