Balaji, who has worked at OpenAI for more than four years, argues that the company’s business model “destroys the commercial viability” of those who create the digital data used to train models.
The man initially believed that AI could be used to solve complex problems such as treating diseases and slowing aging, but he later became disillusioned with the ways they were using the technology.
He believes that artificial intelligence content production does not comply with the principle of “fair use”, which threatens the rights of authors and content owners.
OpenAI responded to Balaji’s statement by emphasizing that its models are trained on publicly available data.
Meanwhile, the New York Times filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft in December 2023, claiming the companies were illegally using their articles to train artificial intelligence. In September, OpenAI agreed to disclose the data used to train ChatGPT following a court order.
