Ah such condescension! I was careful not to provide an opinion, but replicate the answer as is. The intent was not to treat that answer as fact; but I thought that response was pretty revealing and in fact supported the parent comment on LLMs having been trained on copyrighted materials. The response chatgpt provided was that OpenAI models are designed to create original content "without directly referencing copyrighted characters". If it was creating original content it needn't have referred to the constraint with respect to avoiding directly referencing the copyrighted characters.
Shooters gonna shoot
I'm working on something new. It's pre-seeded and MVP is almost ready, and pilots will start in three weeks. It involves AI and education.
I'm an engineer, raised VC money before, and I'm planning to raise again.
If you love sales and want to learn more, email me.
I'll tell you why. I think it's fair to say that most of the people who visit this site are technologists.
Most of us love technology. So why are people reacting like this?
Because we know how this will be used. We know of grifters and quick-buck schemes. We know that, unfortunately, the web as we know it is rapidly dying. We know of the scammers calling you with your loved ones' cloned voices.
We know how powerful this tech is, how easy it is, and how it will be misused.
Yeah, I have done some grifting myself but quit doing it but still know a lot of really creative grifters. I know what a tool like this can do in their hands. These people managed to ruin a lot of Google searches with just human labour and some very basic automation. I know what evil they can do with good generative AI.
