According to ByteDance analysts, leading language models, including ChatGPT, were trained not only on information open on the Web, but also on copyrighted licensed content that is punishable by law. Of course, all of this happened without agreement with the authors, including the authors.
Analysts have complained about ChatGPT that during training the neural network “absorbed” conversational sequences from JK Rowling’s Harry Potter book series. The researchers came to these conclusions by conducting dialogues with the bot. The neural network answered the questions with excerpts from the original texts about Potter.
As mentioned, OpenAI has repeatedly sued various authors for the unauthorized use of texts from books to train their AI.
