OpenAI ordered to pay undisclosed damages for training its language models on artists' work without permission The Munich regional court sided in favour of Germany's music rights society GEMA, which said ChatGPT had harvested protected lyrics by popular artists to "learn" from them. The collecting society GEMA, which manages the rights of composers, lyricists and music publishers and has approximately 100,000 members, filed the case against OpenAI in November 2024. The lawsuit was seen as a key European test case in a campaign to stop AI scraping of creative output.

Teaching Pretrained Language Models to Think Deeper with Retrofitted Recurrence

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Recent advances in depth-recurrent language models show that recurrence can decouple train-time compute and parameter count from test-time compute. In this work, we study how to convert existing pretrained non-recurrent language models into depth-recurrent models. We find that using a curriculum of recurrences to increase the effective depth of the model over the course of training preserves performance while reducing total computational cost. In our experiments, on mathematics, we observe that converting pretrained models to recurrent ones results in better performance at a given compute budget than simply post-training the original non-recurrent language model.
