A lawsuit claims OpenAI stole 'massive amounts of personal data,' including medical records and information about children, to train ChatGPT - Lemmy.world
The lawsuit alleges OpenAI crawled the web to amass huge amounts of data without
people’s permission.
Scraping social media posts and reddit posts doesn’t sound like stealing, they’re public posts.
I doubt it’s only about some Reddit posts. The scrapping was done on the whole web, capturing everything it could. So besides stealing data and presenting it as its own, it seems to have collected some even more problematic data which wasn’t properly protected.
But that really isn't OpenAI's fault. Whoever was in charge of securing the patients data really fucked up.
