This is victim blaming. Whether or not he could have been more careful is not an excuse for GPT-3. Illegal behaviour still should be (1) illegal even if the victim could have done more.

(1) I seem to remember a court case somewhere on the planet in the last months where lack of resistance was deemed indicative of consensual intercourse. Which is not even remotely acceptable. But I digress.

What illegal behaviour? GPT-3 is only spitting out public data. Its like blaming someone taking photo of a road for the photo including some random person.

To the best of my knowledge: GDPR has no exception for public data. If you have PII, you need a reason. Consent is a reason; "needed for the requested business" (eg. home address for online shops) is a reason. "Having fun with autogenerating sentences"... doesn't seem like one.
