A New York Times copyright lawsuit could kill OpenAI
(www.vox.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The thing is that those models aren't even open source, if it was then you could argue that openai's business model is renting processing power. Except they're not so their business model is effectively selling models trained on copyrighted data
Plus, they built the whole thing on the basis of "research purposes" when in reality from the very start they intended to use this as a business above all else. But tax benefits, copyright leniency etcetera were used liberally because 'it's just research'.
And then keeping it closed source. The whole thing is a typical silicon valley scam where they will use whatever they can get their grubby little hands on, and when the product is finally here, they make sure to throw it into the world with such a force that legislators can't even respond adequately. That's how they make sure that there will be no legislation on if the whole thing is even legal or ethical to begin with, but merely to keep it contained. From then on, they can just keep everything in courts indefinitely while the product festers like a cancer.
It's the same thing with blockchains basically.
Also, again, digital slavery being used to 'train' models and child porn being used to train them because the web scrapers they used can't and won't discern whatever shit they rake up into the garbled pile of other people's works.
