Just because they did it doesn't mean more people should do it...

If DeepSeek just would have destroyed the input in the process, it would have been legal and Anthropic should have been fine with it.

This doesn't at all change the irony of big AI labs complaining about Chinese startups stealing the labs' IP, essentially by scraping the responses.

HN has a higher proportion of AI promoters than AI skeptics, and for a good while, the default response to complaints from book authors, bloggers, and other content creators was that "you put it on the internet so it's fair game", or "it's no different from a human learning from your works". So yeah, unless we're willing to revise these answers, I think the same "tough luck" reasoning should apply here.

For folks who are at Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI, or Google, and think it's fundamentally different, I would ask you to think long and hard about that answer.

"illicitly" implies a law that is being violated. What law?

I like Ant, but also I support the tit-for-tat competition. In the best interest of consumers.

Illicitly learning by asking someone a question and listening to their answer.
