As a tangent... a human being who reads up on websites (that are not explicitly in the public domain) is in essence also "training" themselves on that data. It would be really short-sighted (and impossible to start with) to forbid an AI to read it if a human is allowed..
- goopthink 4y agoBut even human-generated work has all sort of domain-specific “fair use” rules to comply with, including plagiarism (academia), open source licensing (code), attribution for generative works (CC) and so on. People who make too closely generative works are scrutinized and face social and business pressures (art, law). Today’s ML output throws everything into a mixer and then blanket-calls it ML-generated output, because the original training content has been separated from the social and legal frameworks that govern it.
- l33tman 4y agoAbsolutely, but it's the output of the human (or AI) that plagiarizes that might be ethically wrong or illegal when used in certain ways, not the human (or AI) reading the input documents in the first place.
