AI Data Laundering: How Academic and Nonprofit Researchers Shield Tech Companies from Accountability
“Simon Willison created a Datasette browser to explore WebVid-10M, one of the two datasets used to train the video generation model, and quickly learned that all 10.7 million video clips were scraped from Shutterstock, watermarks and all.”
