OpenAI: 'Impossible to train today’s leading AI models without using copyrighted materials'

As IEEE study shows super lab's neural nets can emit 'plagiaristic output'

OpenAI has said it would be "impossible" to build top-tier neural networks that meet today's needs without using people's copyrighted work. The Microsoft-backed lab, which believes it is lawfully harvesting said content for training its models, said using out-of-copyright public domain material would result in sub-par AI software....
