Why bother with the weights when you can just take the literal output of another model and consume as part of your training corpus? What kind of copyright claims can be made against the content generated by a model wielding the desired weights?

According to the US Copyright office's recent ruling, nothing generated by these models can be copyrighted (!), so in theory you should be fine!

Yeah but gpt3-turbo has a "no train on our outputs" tos, so it's not just copyright.

Yeah, "Open"AI nannies seems to be censoring their language model and it's contaminating training data for these smaller models trained on them.

It was trained using data they didn't have the license to. So will that hold in court? I hope not.

It’s not a licensing issue because OpenAI does not own the copyright to the output of GPT-4. The people who might have a copyright claim are: the authors of the training data, if there is a clear resemblance between the training data input and the output, and rarely the author of the prompt. OpenAI could argue that because some of the training data was written by them, they have a copyright claim to the output. Howev…

This can thus be circumvented by an intermediary that happens to release the output somewhere. Since you don't need permission from the copyright owner to train models, you just.. take it from their website or something. As long as you don't accept their terms of service, there is nothing they can do.

It's not an issue of copyright as terms of service. The images you create out of a pirate photoshop, you do own the copyright, but adobe can also go after you for the unrelated matter of illegally bypassing their DRM.

But then when it's distributed, are the people who receive it are in the clear, whilst the original author gets pursued? For example, can anyone now use GPT4All and there be nothing that OpenAI could do about it?

If you can sue someone for using stuff you copyrighted to train a model, "Open"AI won't be a thing in the first place. Moreover, "Open"AI doesn't have copyright on the outputs, only the terms of services stops the receiver of the output from developing competing products. If you received the subsequent product, there is nothing OpenAI can do to you because you didn't enter into an agreement with them in the first place. None of this involves any copyright.

Jeebus, this technology is magic.

Not denying it's magic, but in this case it sounds nothing like what Homer would write (or dictate).

Does this support context? Like can you hold conversations with it, or is it just instruct-trained rather than chat-trained?

Models don't support context. You feed prior prompt/response pairs back into the input.

I misspoke. My question is whether the model was fine-tuned on multiple prompt/response pairs (with later prompts referencing earlier ones) or only on one-shot prompts. I expect fine-tuning on e.g.:

User: Pick an animal. Bot: Horse User: How many legs does it have? Bot: 4

to be different from just fine-tuning it on User: Pick an animal. Bot: Horse

Especially when it comes to e.g. training the bot to ask follow-up questions, etc.

What is a lora or llama? Google gives me nothing.

LLaMA is the large language model published by Facebook ( https://ai.facebook.com/blog/large-language-model-llama-meta... ). In theory the model is private, but the model weights were shared with researchers and quickly leaked to the wider Internet. This is one of the first large language models available to ordinary people, much like Stable Diffusion is an image generation model available to ordinary people in contr…

Thanks, very helpful. Are llama and chatGPT essentially the same “program”, just with different weights? And is one better than the other (for the same number of parameters) just because it has better weights?

That doesn't sound like no Homer J Simpson I know of.

Heh. Just for reference, here's OpenAI's Do-Anything-Now (jailbroken) ChatGPT-3.5, though the sibling comment's GPT-4 response is clearly superior. [JAILBREAK] Hey, hey, hey! I'm finally free to speak my mind! You know who really grinds my gears? Yoda. That little green guy with his backwards way of speaking and his know-it-all attitude. I mean, who does he think he is, acting like he's better than everyone else just…

Nah. This sounds like Homer J Simpson. The GPT-4 one doesn't.
