OpenAI suspends ByteDance’s account after it used GPT to train its own AI model.

In today’s issue of Command Line, I reported that ByteDance has been violating the developer license of both Microsoft and OpenAI by using GPT-generated data to train its own, competing model in China. After my report was published, OpenAI spokesperson Niko Felix sent the following statement confirming that ByteDance’s account has been suspended: As I reported, most of ByteDance’s GPT usage has been done through Microsoft’s Azure platform, not through OpenAI directly. I’ve asked Microsoft if it will follow OpenAI and suspend ByteDance’s access as well.

        I thought about that too, but then decided to go with Bender because he’s a robot built by an ominous megacorp. Plus he has an attitude that pretty much sums it all up.

    Hahaha. They’re totally okay with stealing from people but hate it when others do the same to them. What a shame!

      Reminds me of when Microsoft Bing was stealing Google data, and Microsoft was like “So what?”

      Distilling has been around since forever. It’s a legitimate technique that can give you a better model depending on your needs.

      OpenAI does it too to improve its models.

      People use compilers to compile compilers, or just generally computers to design computer hardware, all the time. It’s not so strange.

          We have the idea of a great tool. Right now we’re kind of square wheeling our way through it.

      I don’t know about that. Training your AI on someone else’s AI feels a lot like drinking someone else’s piss. I doubt you are going to extract much innovation out of that

        Can’t be any worse then training it on uninspired social media comments.

        It works pretty well. You can create a good dataset for a fraction of the effort and price it would have required to do it by hand. The quality is similar. You just have to review each prompt so you don’t train your model on bad data.
