OpenAI now tries to hide that ChatGPT was trained on copyrighted books, including J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series::A new research paper laid out ways in which AI developers should try and avoid showing LLMs have been trained on copyrighted material.

Lol:

Content industry: It can reproduce our stuff OpenAI: Content industry: They are hiding that it can reproduce us

If it's infringing on JK Rowling's work, then it's fine

Our ancient legal system trying to lend itself to "protecting authors" is fucking absurd. AI is the future. Are we really going to let everyone take a shot suing these guys over this crap? Its a useful program and infrastructure for everyone.

Holding technology back for antiquated copyright law is downright absurd.

Edit: I want to add that I'm not suggesting copyright should be a free for all on your books or hard work, but rather that this is a computer program and a major breakthrough, and in the same way that if I read a book no one sues my brain for consumption I don't think we should sue an AI: it is not reproducing books. In the same manner that many footnotes websites about books do not reproduce a book by summarizing their content. With the contingency that until Open AI does not have an event where their reputation has to be re-evaluated (IE this is subject to change if they start trying to reproduce books).

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=PJSTFzhs1O4

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

(edit 4 minutes in - hey I have this guy's album already ("Red Extensions of Me"))

I'm basically on the same page as this guy except I don't think the government has to manage a royalties system. People can handle that freely, no? Plus you can pretty immediately envision they're gonna have some kind of asinine censorship policy for what content is acceptable and what content isn't.

How are they going to prove if something was written by an AI?

[–] stevedidWHAT@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It’s a complicated answer I’m unqualified to answer but essentially there exists some sort of baseline either for people or for how gpt responds usually and then they can figure out which way the text “leans”
