The ChatGPT model has violated pretty much all open source licenses (including MIT license which needs attribution. Show me one single OSS project's license attribution before arguing please.) and is standing still. With the backing of microsoft, I am confused. What will happen if they violate their promise and train data selectively from competitors or potential small companies? What is actually stopping them? Most…

> The ChatGPT model has violated pretty much all open source licenses Are you claiming this because they used copyrighted material as training data? If so, I think you're starting from the wrong point. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but last I heard using copyrighted data is pretty murky waters legally and they're operating in a gray area. Additionally, I don't think many open source licenses explicitly forbid using…

> Are you claiming this because they used copyrighted material as training data? If so, I think you're starting from the wrong point.

All open source license comes under copyright law. It means if they violate the OSS license, the license is void and the tech/material becomes copyright protected. So yes, it would mean that it is trained on copyrighted material.

> Additionally, I don't think many open source licenses explicitly forbid using their code as training data.

It doesn't forbid. For example, permissive license like MIT can be used to train LLM's if they are in compliance. The only requirement when you train on a MIT licensed codebase is that you need to provide attribution. It is one of the easiest license to comply. It means, you just need to copy paste the copyright notice. The below is the MIT license of Emberjs.

This copyright notice needs to be somewhere in ChatGPT's website/product to be in compliance with MIT license. If it is not, MIT license is void and you are violating the license. The end result is you are training on copyrighted material. I am more than happy to be corrected if you could find me any single OSS license attribution shown somewhere for training the openai model.

Also, this can be still be fixed by adding the attribution for the code that is trained on. THIS IS MY ARGUMENT. The absolute ignorance and arrogance is their motivation and agenda.

Which is why I am asking, WHAT IS STOPPING THEM FROM VIOLATING THEIR OWN TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR CHATGPT ENTERPRISE?

I hereby dub this "Baron-von-Munchausen-as-a-Service." Now you can pay real money for a chatbot to make stuff up about your company and its products. While it is pretty incredible stuff, until or unless they have a veracity bit — some sort of "please don't lie" flag in it, I'd be wary of what it produces. Will ChatGPT offer off-the-cuff pricing, discounts, rebates and refunds that are in line with your actual busines…

This sounds a bit like word salad, and your argument is worse than an LLM output. You even contradict yourself at the end. Also I think you need to better understand how much hallucination has been driven down recently and its clear path going forward.

> Also I think you need to better understand how much hallucination has been driven down recently and its clear path going forward.

Unless it’s essentially fully eliminated, it doesn’t qualitatively change the argument. The output cannot be trusted to go directly to customers and/or business partners. It can’t even be trusted to go to employees that don’t know it’s from AI and might lie if you ask if something strange.

> You even contradict yourself at the end.

There is no contradiction. Read it again.

So why not put a price on it?

They do. If you use the entire context, a single request is like 30 cents. Very easy to rack up 10s of dollars very very quickly. Not an explanation/excuse, but additional context (no pun intended).

They don't, I'm not allowed access to the 32k GPT-4 model at all.

Exclusive access? Source?

Might be old (2020), as OpenAI models are now also covered by Quora for Poe.com and others: https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2020/09/22/microsoft-teams-...

They probably just call the public API same as everyone else using it outside Microsoft.

The exclusive license refers to having access to the models, which is probably why they were able to finetune Bing AI.

Using chatgpt to code is not a skill. It’s a crutch. Any employees that feel held back by not being able to access it aren’t great in the first place.

I'd avoid the use of the word crutch, it sounds ableist as fuck; my girlfriend has a joint disease and relies on a crutch to walk. In other words, while I understand it's just a figure of speech: how dare you.

It's a tool that can help, just like an IDE, code generators, code formatters, etc. No need to talk down on it in that fashion, and there's no need to look down your nose at tools or the people that use it.

Anyone who can't figure out how to become more efficient with the aid of LLMs is a dinosaur.

Explicitly calling out that they are not going to train on enterprise's data and SOC2 compliance is going to put a lot of the enterprises at ease and embrace ChatGPT in their business processes. From our discussions with enterprises (trying to sell our LLM apps platform), we quickly learned how sensitive enterprises are when it comes to sharing their data. In many of these organizations, employees are already pasting…

My company (Fortune 500 with 80,000 full time employees) has a policy that forbids the use of any AI or LLM tool. The big concern listed in the policy is that we may inadvertently use someone else’s IP from training data. So, our data going into the tool is one concern, but the other is our using something we are not authorized to use because the tool has it already in its data. How do you prove that that could never…

Isn’t that a benefit of using a provider?

Microsoft/OpenAI are selling a service. They’re both reputable companies. If it turns out that they are reselling stolen data, are you really liable for purchasing it?

If you buy something that fell of a truck, then you are liable for purchasing stolen goods. But if it turns out that all the bananas in wall mart were stolen from cosco you’re not as a customer liable for theft.

Similarly, I don’t know if Clarkson Intelligence have purchased proper license for all the data they are reselling. Maybe they are also scraping some proprietary source and now you are using someone else’s IP.

Why is the word "crutch" ableist, when the meaning is exactly analogous? It's a tool to help you do something you can't easily do yourself.
