Alec Radford, a researcher who helped develop many of OpenAI’s major AI technologies, was called intovoice in copyright cases against AI startups According to a court application filed on Tuesday.
The document was filed by plaintiff’s attorneys to the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of California, indicating that Radford received a subpoena on February 25.
Radford left Openai late last year for independent research and is the lead author of OpenAI’s groundbreaking research paper on generating pre-trained Transformers (GPTS). GPTS supports OpenAI’s most popular products, including the company’s AI-powered chatbot platform Chatgpt.
Radford joined Openai in 2016 a year after the company was founded. He has created a variety of models in the company’s GPT series, as well as speech recognition models for the company’s image generation model, Whisper and Dall-E.
Book authors including Paul Tremblay, Sarah Silverman and Michael Chabon filed a copyright case “Re Openai Chatgpt lawsuit”, claiming that Openai infringed its copyright by using its work to train its AI models. The plaintiff also argued that Chatgpt infringed on their works and quoted them No Attribution.
Last year, the court rejected the claims of two plaintiffs against OpenAI, but allowed claims of direct infringement to continue. Openai maintains its use of copyrighted data protected Reasonable use.
Redford is not the only famous figure trying to argue for the author’s lawyer. The plaintiff’s lawyers also raised the force to deposit Dario Amodei and Benjamin Mann, both former Openai employees who left the company and began anthropomorphism. Amodei and Mann fought, claiming they were too heavy.
US Magistrates Rule this week The Amodei had to conduct hours of inquiries for the work he did for Openai in two copyright cases, including Cases filed by the Authors Guild.
