Generative AI tools are quickly 'running out of text' to train themselves on, UC Berkeley professor warns

In an email to Insider, Russell said many reports, although unconfirmed, have detailed that OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, purchased text datasets from private sources. Russell added that while there are possible explanations for such a purchase,"the natural inference is that there isn't enough high-quality public data left.

Several lawsuits filed against OpenAI in the past few weeks allege the company used datasets containing personal data and copyrighted materials to train ChatGPT. Among the biggest was a 157-page lawsuit filed by 16 unnamed plaintiffs, who claim OpenAI used sensitive data such as private conversations and medical records.

OpenAI has not made any public comments on the slate of lawsuits filed against it. Its CEO Sam Altman has also refrained from discussing the allegations, but in the past has expressed a desire to avoid legal troubles. he had no plans to issue an IPO for OpenAI, reasoning that the company's unorthodox structure and decision-making could lead to clashes with investors.

"I don't really want to be like sued by a bunch of like public market, Wall Street whatevers," Altman said.Subscribe to push notifications
