OpenAI warns copyright crackdown could doom ChatGPT
The maker of ChatGPT has warned that a ban on using news and books to train chatbots would doom the development of artificial intelligence. OpenAI has told peers that it would be “impossible” to create services such as ChatGPT if it were prevented from relying on copyrighted works, as it seeks to influence potential laws on the topic. In evidence submitted to the House of Lords communications and digital committee, OpenAI said: “Because copyright today covers virtually every sort of human expression – including blog posts, photographs, forum posts, scraps of software code, and government documents – it would be impossible to train today’s leading AI models without using copyrighted materials. “Limiting training data to public domain books and drawings created more than a century ago might yield an interesting experiment, but would not provide AI systems that meet the needs of today’s citizens.” OpenAI said it complies with all copyright laws when training its models and that “we believe that legally copyright law does not forbid training”. Last month, the New York Times sued the company claiming it is “profit from the massive copyright infringement, commercial exploitation and misappropriation of The Times’s intellectual property”.
