> locking up all content creators into exclusive deals so that other LLMs don't get access to the new data
It seems like most (all?) foundational models were trained on stolen content. I’m not sure what content exclusivity looks like for LLMs. It’s not like Joe Rogan signing on with Spotify where they have exclusive distribution rights for a particular piece of content.
- cruano 2y agoThere was already a $60M/year deal between Google and Reddit
- blindriver 2y agoExactly. And Reddit is doubling down on monetizing content it doesn't create itself. Not only are the mods completely free and unpaid for who curate and hone the best posts for their subreddits, now the subredditors are having their comments monetized by Reddit for free. And the upvoting ensures that high quality data is already reinforcement learning via meatbots.
- fourside 2y agoHow do you enforce it? Even if you try doing it through copyright laws a company like DeepSeek is not going to care.
- blindriver 2y agoThis is exactly what it's going to be. Free information is dead, we just don't know it yet. It's dead because why would someone produce free content, and then have all their page clicks hijacked by LLMs that just return the data directly? I think ad/search ecosystem is dead in less than 5 years. If it's not dead then OpenAI fucked up.
