As far as I'm aware training does not currently constitute "piracy". It's fine to advocate for a redefinition but be explicit about it.

- gnomewascool 3y agoI think the point here is about the procurement of the training data, in violation of copyright laws ("piracy"), rather than that the training itself is piracy. The suspicion[0] is that OpenAI trained their models on a large text dump including libgen (in the so-called "books2"). If a person downloads a book from Library Genesis, they're a pirate; if OpenAI does it, so are they.
