Not when OpenAI publicly declared they trained on pirated works. I can’t imagine “we can’t tell if this is the result of the illegal thing we did or not” is going to stand up very well, nor does it bode well for any refutation of the plaintiff’s depiction of their intent. Part of fair use consideration is commercial impact and when you steal a bunch of books to train your AI model, it’s hard to refute that the impact is not negative or that you didn’t intend commercial harm.

Please read more carefully. OpenAI never “declared they trained on pirated works.”

However, the root of this thread quotes Meta admitting exactly that.

So this is another thing I don’t understand. Is the claim that fewer people will buy Silverman’s book because ChatGPT is able to provide a summary? If so, call me skeptical.

That's not a claim Silverman has to make. "You copied my book without license to do so" is sufficient.

Do you think scraping huge swathes of the internet contains pirated works or not?

I see, they didn't.
Where does it say they scraped huge swathes of the internet and didn't look at the results?
