Comment on Reddit stock falls for second day as references to its content in ChatGPT responses plummet

  For unauthorized scrapers? Definitely

  For paid API usage? That tends to not be public for obvious reasons but, allegedly, people have, allegedly, done tests and found “deleted” content in the results.

    Ive heard the same but I haven’t seen real evidence anywhere, so im skeptical. But yes I agree, if they CAN get that data, it means the training data is better-ish….

    But we are still on this site for a reason :)

      I mean… if the reason you left is because you didn’t want your data scraped then… the fediverse is one of the worst places to go? Because anyone can run a modified lemmy instance to pull everything through the tools specifically designed to do that.

      Let alone just scraping websites that don’t have teams of big corporate lawyers.

      It’s all relative I guess. I can see why the original GPT’s used the Reddit corpus for training. However I’ve always been a little sceptical about the quality of the training set in any social media given how much it exaggerates the extremes of people’s behaviour.

    That’s why I edited everything before deleting it.

      I did this too but reddit reverted everything back to how it was and undeleted my account

        Looks like me too. Time for a cease and desist.

      Version control mother fucker, do you speak it?

      But, in all seriousness: That is what they use for the comments. It is why a lot of the mass delete tools were “accidentally” undone during The Exodus. Because it was literally just rolling back. Theoretically there might be a limited number of revisions available but if you believe that I have a bridge to sell you. Because imagine if A Brown Person wrote a message then edited it five times so that Chloe couldn’t alert Jack Bauer to who to torture

      I edited everything before deleting it, double-checked it was still deleted periodically, and it all got restored sometime earlier this year.

        Just checked my old account again, and all edited content is still there, with “Fuck u/spez” appearing as the top comment in some posts that are like 12 years old
