In today’s issue of Command Line, I reported that ByteDance has been violating the developer license of both Microsoft and OpenAI by using GPT-generated data to train its own, competing model in China. After my report was published, OpenAI spokesperson Niko Felix sent the following statement confirming that ByteDance’s account has been suspended: As I reported, most of ByteDance’s GPT usage has been done through Microsoft’s Azure platform, not through OpenAI directly. I’ve asked Microsoft if it will follow OpenAI and suspend ByteDance’s access as well.
People use compilers to compile compilers, or just generally computers to design computer hardware, all the time. It’s not so strange.
I thought it was almost entirely the point to automate stuff. We have a great tool to automate the automation.
We have the idea of a great tool. Right now we’re kind of square wheeling our way through it.
I prefer the term bumblefucking, but ok, square-wheeling.
