In addition to the possible business threat, forcing OpenAI to identify its use of copyrighted data would expose the company to potential lawsuits. Generative AI systems like ChatGPT and DALL-E are trained using large amounts of data scraped from the web, much of it copyright protected. When companies disclose these data sources it leaves them open to legal challenges. OpenAI rival Stability AI, for example, is currently being sued by stock image maker Getty Images for using its copyrighted data to train its AI image generator.

Aaaaaand there it is. They don’t want to admit how much copyrighted materials they’ve been using.

    I am very open to discussion on this, and if anyone has a counter-argument, I’d love to hear it, because this is a new field of technology that we should all talk about and learn to understand better.

    That’s very cool and all but while we have this debate there are artists getting ripped off.

      You aren’t having a debate. You’re blindly claiming that artists are getting ripped off, because maybe they are a bit, or maybe they’re latching onto any reason that lets them still have professional careers in 30 years.

        I’m not making blind claims. And I won’t point you to the sources either. I’m not making any homework for anyone today. Dig the subject and post us some information if you are really into the debate thing.

      If you can provide some sources with real data from people that have proven a loss of income due to getting “ripped off” by AI, I’d love to look over it. Until then, it’s a witch hunt.

        I can provide you with reddit posts from artists who are replaced by AI.

        Would you like it served with a cup of tea and some sandwiches?

          If you have some that have actual proof in them, sure. That’s exactly what I’m looking for. However, if it amounts to nothing more than hearsay, then no, I don’t think I want them.
