True, and they're being tried in a federal court of law for it. NYT v. OpenAI is still very much alive, these things just take a while. Can the same be said about DeepSeek or any other open-source model provider performing distillation?
- riskd 6mo agoYou already know what the results of this “trial” will be. Let’s not pretend.
- copypaper 6mo agoPandora's box has already been opened and there is no going back. I doubt OpenAI, et al will get anything but a slap on the wrist in court because punishing AI companies would have a negative effect on the US economy. >Can the same be said about DeepSeek or any other open-source model provider performing distillation? Open source models that distill from SoTA reminds me of the story of Robin Hood -- robbing the rich and giving it to the poor. So to answer your question: yes, but it's better than the alternative where only a select few companies have SoTA models.

- copypaper 6mo agotouché hahah. Are there any SoTA open-source models that don't have corporate interest?
- paweladamczuk 6mo ago>these thing just take a while Oh, so people might be forced to give back the AI earnings? Should I be worried about the last year's capital gains on my portfolio?
