I hope you don’t think that’s all whats happening, right?
>LLM training is a special type of reading that should be considered infringement

- fallingknife 3y agoYou could definitely argue that it's more than just reading since they made the model out of it. But the matrix of parameters generated by training is so fundamentally different than the input that it is certainly covered by the transformative use exception to copyright.
- Ringz 3y agoOf course, OpenAI doesn't just read. But do they simply reproduce content verbatim? And when they do not reproduce contents of the NYT verbatim, but rather process and tailor them to the situation, mixed, 'charged' with new 'information content' and adjusted to the purpose of the inquirer, it will not be easy for the New York Times. Because ultimately, our entire knowledge is based on the knowledge of others and is remixed, 'charged' and changed by us after reading. I also think that the New York Times uses the contents of others to create new content.
