If OpenAI can get away with going through copy-righted material, then the answer to piracy is simple: round up a bunch of talented Devs from the internet who are writing and training AI models, and let's make a fantastic model trained on what the internet archive has. Tell you what, let Mistral's engineers lead that charge, and put an AGPL license on the project so that companies can't fuck us over.

I refuse to believe that nobody has thought of this yet

We get it, y’all hate LLMs and the companies who make them.

This comparison is disingenuous and I have to think you’re smart enough to know that, making this disinformation.

If/when an LLM like ChatGPT spits out a full copy of training text, that’s considered a bug and is remediated fairly quickly. It’s not a feature.

What IA was doing was sharing the full text as a feature.

As far as I know, there are some court cases pending regarding determining if companies like Open AI are guilty of copyright infringement but I haven’t seen any convictions yet (happy to be corrected here).

All that said, I love IA and have a Warrior container scheduled to run nightly to help contribute.

Hmm, true. IA wouldn't be as supported if we couldn't get the full text of the source.

Can you tell me more about the "warrior container"?

It’s mentioned in the OP but it’s this:

Basically, distributed collection.
