[edit: they have since opened a comment section to the article.] It is unfortunate that the NYTimes don’t allow reader comments to this article. I like some of the NYTimes content, but in this case use of chatGPT is infinitely more valuable to me than subscribing to the NYTimes, so I would like to explain this concept and the associated risks by their litigation without cancelling my subscription.

Maybe it is time to move training of models to Japan that has explicitly adapted AI friendly legislation that allows training on previously copyrighted materials. My best guess is that if the inputs were legally obtained, then the output doesn’t violate anything until someone publishes it. Similar to how reading a newspaper in a public library is legal but copying its content verbatim and republishing is not.
