        used to train both commercial

        commercial training is, in this case, stealing people’s work for commercial gain

        and open source language models

        so, uh, let us train open-source models on open-source text. There’s so much of it that there’s no need to steal.

        ?

        I’m not sure why you added a question mark at the end of your statement.

          I’m not sure why you added a question mark at the end of your statement.

          I was questioning whether or not you would see that as a benefit. Clearly you don’t.

          Are you also against libraries letting people borrow books since those are also lost sales for the authors, or are you just a luddite?

            libraries letting people borrow books

            This is so far from analogous that it’s almost a nonsequitur.

            are you just a luddite?

            No, and you don’t even believe such nonsense. You’re grasping, ineffectively.
