If Google used the entire Internet to train a model, this would immediately be lambasted as a horrible overreach and they would be sued and regulators would use this as another data point to try and break them up. How long have their crawlers been tickling every part of the accessible Internet? How many chrome browsers could they use? If they acted unethically here, they could have many multiples of the data open ai can reach.
Open ai can take on more risk. They didn’t already have a reputation as being anti privacy.
I think the legal and reputational threat to Google would be far greater for the same actions.
