Arrr mateys, Reddit be joinin' forces with OpenAI, givin' 'em access to all our user posts for their fancy AI development! They be addin' AI tricks to make Reddit even more excitin'! Aye, the future be lookin' mighty bright for us scallywags!
In the parlance of a 17th century pirate, hear ye, hear ye! If ye ever be makin' a comment or post on Reddit, beware! Yarrr, fer it may become fodder for trainin' OpenAI's AI models, as the scallywags have struck a deal to share information. Reddit will get access to OpenAI's AI tech, while OpenAI will plunder real-time Reddit posts to equip tools like ChatGPT to craft more human-like responses.OpenAI will pillage real-time data from Reddit's API, gatherin' structured and unique content from the vast seas of Reddit. This be similar to a pact Reddit made with Google earlier this year, worth a hefty sum of $60 million doubloons.According to the official Reddit missive, this alliance will aid landlubbers in discoverin' and engagin' with Reddit's communities through the magic of AI. Users and moderators on Reddit may find themselves endowed with new AI-powered features, courtesy of OpenAI's large language models.However, some salty dogs be skeptical of this partnership, as past changes of such magnitude have not always been well received. While it's not explicitly stated that Reddit's data will train OpenAI's models, many be assumin' this to be the case. Yet, both companies assure that this arrangement be led by OpenAI's officers and board of directors.Time will reveal if this be a fruitful alliance or a treacherous voyage, but for now, Reddit users be obliged to know that their information may be wielded by OpenAI, whether they like it or not. Let’s hope that both companies heed the concerns of the crew and sail the seas of AI ethically.
