You don't. If you have taken the time to write this question and waited for a response, it's too late. Latex paint could possible be taken up with a carpet cleaning machine if done while still wet and with many cleanings. Oil base is a lost cause.

It depends on whether it is a water (latex) based paint or a oil based paint. If it is oil based paint it may not come out, but if it is a water (latex) based paint use 'Goof Off' or other latex paint removers with a wire brush. I have used 'Muriatic acid' on some concrete appications.

How do you get dried latex paint out of carpet?

Instead of regular "Goof Off" use "Goof Off 2". Goof off 2 is a water based cleaner where regular goof off is solvent based. Over use of solvents or failure to properly extract them will cause "delamination" breaking down the latex backing of the carpet causing the fibers to sepparate from the backing. try "goof off or goo gone" it's either at Home Depot, Lowes or a craft store like Michaels Denatured alcohol.
