OpenAI destroyed a trove of books used to train AI models. The employees who collected the data are gone.
Clent, Nice to see Lemmy users don’t read the articles before posting stupid comments. The internet never changes.
The article is about a lawsuit by book authors.
OpenAI trained their models on copyrighted material.
OpenAI deleted the sources so the list of copyrighted materials is unknown.
mhague, “A corporation destroyed a trove of books!”
“That’s terrible, what books were lost?”
“Oh, none. It was a digital collection.”
“But people will be inconvenienced by losing the repository, right?”
“No, I mean a corporation deleted a dataset they made, trained from a metaphorical trove of books.”
“I’m leaving.”
Dkarma, Oh no.
Anyway.
The free stuff we put out on the internet got scraped by a robot?
Now we’re gonna sue…Google? No it’s fine when they do it.
