Two award-winning authors recently sued OpenAI, accusing the generative-AI bastion of violating copyright law by using their published books to train ChatGPT without their consent.

Filed in late June, the lawsuit claims that ChatGPT’s underlying large language model “ingested” the copyrighted work of the case’s plaintiffs, authors Mona Awad and Paul Tremblay. They argue that ChatGPT’s ability to produce detailed summaries of their works indicates their books were included in datasets used to train the technology.

    Yeah tbh I don’t think any sane person does. So what people who first taught them to read deserve a cut?

    Some philosophers believe you cannot imagine something that does not currently exist. All your thoughts and “creativity” are a slave to it.

    But in true economy, there’s going to be litigation and money will be made because money always has to be made. This seems akin to the patent trolls some years back. And the RIAA well before that.
