My guess is the big players hope is to steal an enough content and then build a self training LLM based off synthetic content (rehashed original works) before the theft part matters. Not sure how close they are to achieving but this seems to be a common SV gamble.
Steal or do something shady, raise enough money / power so by the time your noticed, you have the money to win in the courts.
You already see the propaganda about “none of this should
matter because the cure for cancer is on the way courtesy of AI.” I mean maybe it it but it smells fishy to me.
- p1esk 3y agoAn LLM can be trained to find relevant knowledge online. It doesn’t have to be trained on the entirety of all existing knowledge.
- ChatGTP 3y agoGood luck when everything is paywalled
- Sindisil 3y agoGiven the already huge cost of training, and the evident lack of concern the LLM folks seem to have for copyright, why wouldn't the AI groups purchase subs to scrape the paywalled content? The would possibly need to apply some effort to appear human, but that should only throttle the rate, not stop their scraping all together.
- ChatGTP 3y agoIt's more difficult to scrape pay walled content no? Clearly, places like Reddit have wised up to this and are making API usages non-free for example, so while it's not impossible, you can see the limitations being put into place already. Twitter is another one. It seems like all this data is now considered gold and people lock up gold?
- visarga 3y ago> An LLM can be trained to find relevant knowledge online. Why do you think chatGPT lost its Web Search plugin lately? Copyright lawsuits. You can't even use copyrighted content in the prompt because it will make the model makers liable.
- p1esk 3y agoBut this doesn’t make sense - how is using ChatGPT to find information different from using a search engine? Especially if ChatGPT clearly lists its sources?
