you're aware openai trained on a boatload of pirated ebooks?

they "steal" access to data because the LLM launders it on the other end

That is frustrating to no end. If I pirate one book I should pay a hefty fine. If a company does it it's unlocking untapped value.

What do you base this on?

Llms know the contents of books because they are analyzed, reviewed and spoken about everywhere. Pick some obscure book that doesn't show up on any social media and ask about it's contents. GPT won't have a clue

Did you read the article (this one misstates the case but if you look at the one linked about the lawsuit)? This is a lawsuit. Nothing has been proven. Burden of proof is on you
