> Second, the way I read this is that they are trying to analogize scarping the web to feed it into ChatGPT to someone following you movements in public recording it all. This gets thrown out a lot. It deflects the blame from the responsible parties. You can’t scrape what isn’t available. ChatGPT (and the various image algos) are showing signs of having seen far more than most think would be hanging out in the wind. Feeding these with web scrapings may be reckless, but leaving things like medical records, financial histories, and other private information sitting out on the public web, on purpose or not, is far more so. There is a lot of blame to go around, and more importantly a lot of work to do.
