TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, has been secretly using OpenAI's technology to develop its own competing large language model (LLM). "This practice is generally considered a faux pas in the AI world," writes The Verge's Alex Heath. "It's also in direct violation of OpenAI's terms of service, which state that its model output can't be used 'to develop any artificial intelligence models that compete with our products and services.'"

OpenAI will steal a whole internet worth of everybody's data to train their large language model, but gets pissed when others do the same to them.

Their take on it, via Sam Altman, is that the AI is reading and learning from the internet and we can’t fault them for that, right? You don’t fault a human from using what they’ve learned, do you? Is the rationale… I don’t know what I think about it though

It's not a PERSON. The only person involved is literally copying the internet and duct taping it together to form chat gpt. Then they say "the AI is reading and learning like any human would". No brother, the AI IS MADE FROM a copy of all the stolen words. Before the theft, there is no AI that you can put the words into and have it learn. It's just a matrix filled with trillions of zeroes. It's only an AI AFTER you build it from the stolen data.
