It really feels like tech companies are taking the approach of "we'll guarantee you anything you want!" As a sales strategy.

The cynical part of me wants to say it shows that they have high confidence they can manipulate the legal system enough to dictate the outcome of any challenges.




this might work in the US but is unlikely to work elsewhere in the world

the EU in particular is likely to pay less than zero attention to the interests of large US tech companies

the liability they're taking on here could be absolutely gigantic


Not a lawyer but I imagine the infringement on the input side, during the dataset creation and training would take place wherever the model is being trained? So presumably the us? On the other hand, yeah. Memorizing input data and spitting out protected characters on the output side seems like an issue.


They clearly can't indemnify that all output is copyright free if the person inputting is describing a copyrighted work either.

Sufficiently advanced Gen AI can generate images / text that looks like copyrighted work from description while being licensed for all training data.
