If the training toggle is switched on, maybe OpenAI doesn't consider a chat to be private? Therefore making this a 'safe' statement.
replyThe distiction they are trying to make is: "One of our employees or the model was able to verbatim read the chats when they were actively tackling the problem" vs "The chat of someone working on the problem may have ended up in the training set of the model".
replyExcept that’s not what happened. OpenAI offered to collaborate and put conditions on their offer. They aren’t threatening the removal of a coauthor for an independent work.
replyThe condition was ludicrous, and for political reasons, because one of the authors was also an Anthropic employee.
replyIt's completely childish, and not befitting of the weight of the times we're living in.
