→ Former OpenAI Researcher Says the Company Broke Copyright Law
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/23/technology/openai-copyright-law.html

“Suchir Balaji spent nearly four years as an artificial intelligence researcher at OpenAI. [A]fter the release of ChatGPT in late 2022, he thought harder about what the company was doing. He came to the conclusion that OpenAI’s use of copyrighted data violated the law and that technologies like ChatGPT were damaging the internet.”

Am I an #accelerationist when I hope that #LLM|s being trained on #copyrighted content will lead to a new copyright system that is fairer for creators and consumers?
I’m pretty sure I am naive.

#European countries' laws can be very different from #English common-law countries' (and E.U. #law even stranger), so I make no claim about those.

But you are #mistaken about #Canadian (and I believe all other English common-law countries) law - #facts #absolutely cannot be #copyrighted. You cannot stop someone #writing a #story based on facts you reveal in your story.

See https://ised-isde.canada.ca/site/canadian-intellectual-property-office/en/guide-copyright#faq , question (2), in addition to other places.
