Modern copyright law is so far behind the times and broken in more ways one can count. The only sensible way one can deal with it is to ignore it and keep their mouth shut.
Say for example, the Mistral AI approach. The released Mistral 7B and destroyed every other model in its class in performance while giving it a much less restrictive license. They gave zero info about what they trained on... and nobody is asking. A very smart move from both sides that benefits just about everyone.
The only winning move is not to play.
- ShamelessC 3y agoI suspect they’re covered under fair use (for now) but also nobody cares because the larger models are the ones that get used by people who would care enough to be upset about it.
- moffkalast 3y agoEveryone claims fair use, but the terms for that are pretty narrow and wouldn't hold up anywhere afaik. Unless you're doing a news report or a review with actual criticism it probably won't pass the smell test. An LLM definitely doesn't fit that description in the slightest.
- ShamelessC 3y agoI maintain my position that despite whatever moral or ethical quandaries you feel are being violated, “no one cares”.
