but "making money = infringement" is folk wisdom. you could certainly say making money attracts attention and increases likelihood of legal action
- shkkmo 3y agoMaking money off it doesn't just draw more attention, it also makes a fair use defense harder. Non-commercial use isn't necessary or sufficent for fair use, but it does help.
- ledauphin 3y agoyeah, I appreciate this clarification. "publishing" seems like a nebulous concept to me and the general act of publishing something rarely seems to be what draws the attention of the lawyers (whereas making money seems clearer-cut). So I suppose the question will hang on whether OpenAI is "publishing" if it returns similarly infringing results for the same prompts, even though those results are individually generated for a given user query.
