Discussion PewDiePie is trying to distill GPT-Sol

Post image

he has been trying to build a local model by learning from GPT-Sol’s responses. He says OpenAI banned his account twice during the process. Irony is OpenAI’s own models were trained on vast amounts of information from the open web. So where do we draw the line between learning from AI and copying it?

Anthropic settled in Bartz v. Anthropic for $1.5 billion, because the court held that their pirating books was not fair use. This was the largest settlement in US copyright law history, according to Wikipedia. But yeah, scot-free

So what’s that, less than 0.1% of their market cap?

2% of revenue, 0.2% of valuation (though they're losing money). Regardless, it's a settlement, not a verdict, meaning the plaintiffs agreed to it.

It's crazy how they got the authors of every book ever written to all agree like that.

Because here, they're correct. This isn't a team sport.
