Reply to comment by gurenkagurenda in OpenAI Is Faulted by Media for Using Articles to Train ChatGPT by Tough_Gadfly

Exactly. This is what big tech has been doing already to create legal and ethical data.

The training data is the bottleneck. OpenAI is trying to see if they can pull a fast one by releasing models using copyrighted material

They’re not “pulling a fast one”. There’s no precedent here, and there’s a boatload of lawyers who agree that this is fair use. There are also a number who believe that it won’t be. The courts will have to figure it out, but until then, nobody knows how it will play out.

They actually are. The precedent has been to use public domain material (which is why there are so many fine art style GANs), create your own data, pay for data to be created, pay for existing data, or keep the models private. There are plenty more artists and other jobs than lawyers who know this isn't fair use and will be negatively impacted if these companies are allowed to continue this practice.

That's not what I mean by precedent. I mean that there is no legal precedent.

Lol, if you think these huge companies don't have teams of lawyers advising them on how to legally create models, you're nuts. OpenAI has everything to gain and nothing to lose by trying to challenge the precedents that are already set.

But keep doing your own research. Maybe they'll hire you (or maybe they already do)

Please cite the case that you're talking about which you claim sets this precedent. Thanks.
