Is this a bit? If it's illegal to train on copyrighted material, then OAI has broken the law ten times over by training GPT3. There's absolutely zero reason for them to sue, they'll just ban the responsible people.

It's still an open question if any of these models, trained on copyright work, will themselves be eligible for copyright protection.

How many TOS agreements do you suppose they violated while training their models?

I think their TOS forbids using the API for this. I don't think it covers the use of the web interface.

Ironic
