- smt88 4y ago> random text generated by an elaborate neural net This isn't a good summary of ChatGPT or any AI that would take white-collar jobs. ChatGPT (and its competitors/successors) is trained on the work of millions of actual humans over the course of billions of hours. If you took away ChatGPT's ability to be trained on the un-reimbursed work of others, it could never replace anyone's job.
- version_five 4y ago> un-reimbursed This is silly. I've learned most the theory behind my current profession from the internet. If you took away my ability to learn from that "un-reimbursed work" then I'd be pretty useless too. Whatever one thinks about chatgpt, it's a dead end to worry about the fact that it's trained on information shared publicly
- smt88 4y ago> I've learned most the theory behind my current profession from the internet These things rarely violate copyright law. They're usually something written that was intended to be educational. The scope of a human's ability to ingest information is also limited. ChatGPT can ingest millions of lifetimes of information, and it doesn't give ad dollars or subscription money to anyone who created those things.
- deadly_syn 4y agoIf you expect to make money from a digital asset and you dont want it "stolen" put it behind a paywall
- smt88 4y agoThe law doesn't care about paywalls, and neither do AI companies. ChatGPT is trained with content behind paywalls.
- deadly_syn 4y agoRight, which i see no issue with since they would have to pay to train on that data since by definition its behind a paywall.
