Is there currently any way to identify ethical (or I guess, semi-ethical or even not actively unethical..) AI companies?
Would be nice to see some effort on this front, a la "we don't scrape", or "we use this reputable dataset which scrapes while respecting robots.txt and reasonable caching", or heaven forbid "we train only on a dataset based on public domain content"
Even if it was an empty promise (or goodwill ultimately broken) it'd be _something_. If it exists, I'd certainly prioritise any products which proclaimed it
Do we need to make one?
- pentaphobe 2y ago(Posting as separate comment because wall of text) Also - Honestly don't even understand why so many people would need to scrape for training data. Is it naïveté (thinking it necessary), arrogance (thinking it better than others, and thus justified)? Aren't most advances now primarily focused on either higher level (agents, layered retrieval) or lower level (eg. alternatives to transformers, etc.. which would be easier to prove useful on existing datasets)? Genuine questions, all of these - if I'm off the mark I'm keen to learn!
