People say, "But they made a copy in order to train their model."
About that: my browser makes a copy of images to the local cache when I visit websites.
If making a local copy of something online is copyright infringement, then we're all guilty.

Accessing the page via TOR, however, worked fine. :thumbs-up-emoji:

True that. I thought maybe "Sign Up" by giving them my email address would be enough to let me read this one article, one time.
Nope. All it does is then present you with a payment menu. :thumbs-down-emoji:

Like the examples from Claudine Gay's work that are unattributed carbon copies from other's work.

This case does not merit major academic institutional soul-searching* or legal hairsplitting. A student getting caught doing these things would at least get an F, probably get sent to the Honor Court, and who knows, maybe even expelled.

*Well, maybe soul-searching could be merited if it takes forms like "how did we ever put a person like this in charge?", "are many of our disciplines complete jokes lacking any form of rigor or integrity?", etc?

One of the few cases where the answer is "yes". TFA displays remarkable unfamiliarity with the subject in every respect.

TFA doesn't mention any misuse of open source software.
The closest thing to "perils" might be the licensing changes it describes, but...well, adjust. It's not like "forcing major changes that make everybody re-evaluate whether they want to keep using it" never happens with commercial software.

for the true answer to decline until it reaches the number you specified. :-(

These sorts of posts almost never offer comparisons with other areas of industry, manufacturing, etc.

TFA says,
> "estimated the carbon footprint of training a single early large language model (LLM) such as GPT-2 at about 300,000kg of CO2 emissions – the equivalent of 125 round-trip flights between New York and Beijing. "

125 flights doesn't sound that bad for a massive undertaking like training ChatGPT.
How does this compare with what a typical factory emits in a year?
How does the power consumption compare with, say, an auto manufacturing plant?

the same as a foreign astronaut? The former just somehow sounds better, right? ...Or does the term refer to someone who has been launched from within more than one country? ;-)

It's crazy, my company does the same thing with the laptops they provide to us! When will this Orwellian nightmare end? ;-) jk

Seriously. Somebody mod that up please.

Thanks!

Is it seems to be only available on Azure Cloud. Please tell me if I'm wrong.

Come on, /. We can't read any of these. Who's greenlighting this rampant advertising for WSJ?

No, the first mention of Elmendorf in the /. quote reads:

> ...would likely try to pressure Douglas Elmendorf, the dean of the Kennedy School of Government
