OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Sam Altman are in massive trouble. OpenAI is getting sued in the US for illegally using content from the internet to train their LLM or large language models
Piracy isn’t stealing and neither is this.
yarrr!
Piracy also isn’t copyright infringement but that’s what this is. Under the law, which sucks. And if it applies to us it should apply to them.
Seeders are committing copyright infringement, by definition. Piracy actively encourages that behavior. Whether that is unethical or not can be debated though (FBI, I swear I have nyaa idea how qBT ended up on my machine, must have been a virus from a 4chan hacker).
I know why I have Transmission installed on mine: to download LibreOffice and Debian disk images.
