I'd assume that you'd be waiving any legal claim they might have when they sign the ToS or w/e. I mean, in all fairness, they are getting paid to perform these actions and be recorded. What more would they have any claim for anyway? A percentage based on the times their anonymized playthroughs were used?
"Well, we've got 1,000 people and each played 100 games of Go. We took that 100,000 games and trained a single dataset to play against itself." User is 1 player of 1,000. Company makes 20,000,000 and sets aside 25% (magically) for paying back the original people. Those people now get $5000. That $5000 is cool but it's not life changing.
EDIT: It occurs to me that my numbers could be skewed. This could be significant if they only used 100 people or so, I guess. My point wasn't necessarily to shoot down the notion just to discuss it. What would the person have a claim to be it legal or otherwise?
