David Friedberg reveals frontier labs are taking novel insights from his chat history and packaging them as their own "I have had experiences where we've asked some fairly novel scientific questions, and it identifies it as a novel insight, 'oh, never thought about that, might be interesting,' blah blah blah..." "And the using a different account, asking the next model version, it's like, 'oh, you could do this'. And it actually just describes this exact thing that we had in our chat in the previous version." "These are a handful of anecdotal experiences. But I know the domain that we work in, and the novelty of this stuff. So I know that there isn't some new corpus of information out there that's training the new model." "So all I can say at that point is that my conversation or our analyses have been used for training. The truth is, it's actually a piece of IP, that's our organizational IP. We don't have any NDA or confidentiality protections, with them being a service provider back to us." "This is why I care a lot about open source, because I don't want them having my chat logs, because they can use them for training to create an IP that is now diffused to the rest of the market. I find this very unfair."
