What a shame. Misguided policies. The reasons they indicate they are banning ChatGPT are so shallow. It seems like they are trying to find reasons to ban it, rather than ban it because of actual reasons.
Now these (in)famous people (who coincidentally all have indirectly indicated that they want their part in the market) are demanding that GPT be halted for 6 months at the same time? Give me a break. Political theater at its finest.
Seriously. Age verification? I’m sorry but it’s a joke of a system (as Gabe Newell once said:
Valve’s head honcho Gabe Newell revealed in an odds-defying statement today that 93% of Steam users were born on January 1st. “It’s something that’s been really bothering us for awhile,” a visibly befuddled Newell told The Noble Eskimo. "The odds of this happening are even less than a billion-to-one.
The data breach? Has absolutely nothing to do with ChatGPT. Low key pretty messed up that they used an open-source library without vetting the crap out of it, but it’s understandable.
ChatGPT should be considered a public utility. It is providing free education & resources to everyone. There is a massive difference between collecting data to use for training, to collecting data to be packaged and sold for advertising (which is what Google does but won their lawsuit claiming that they are a public utility)
Does this include the API? Can you guys still use the playground?
