But there's no evidence, in this case anyway, that it was trained using the entire book(s). Multiple summaries of the author's works are available on various sites in the public domain, and GPT is capable of amalgamating all of them and summarizing it.
Now if you asked it to reproduce an entire book, or say some random non-free chapter or excerpt exactly word-by-word, that would be a issue, but so far I haven't seen any evidence that it was able to do so.
That'll come out during the case. I assume they have evidence, otherwise suing would be a waste of time. Unless some lawyer is taking them for a ride.
You only do need 51% certainty to win in civil court, though, so maybe they think they can just argue it? Still though, I'd want some sound evidence before going to court. Unless it's just a slapp-style suit, but that doesn't really fit.
That’s an incredibly bold assertion.
Do you never make those?
