Several AI companies have recently been accused of collecting data used to train large language models (LLMs) without the consent of the affected parties.
The latest of the accusations come from Ifixit and Freelancer, which say Anthropic has collected data from the sites, even though they used a protocol to prevent that from happening. According to Freelancer CEO Matt Barrie, their site received 3.5 million hits from Anthropic’s Claudebot in four hours, making the bot “the most aggressive” to date.
Ifixit CEO Kyle Wiens, in a comment quoted by Engadget, said Anthropic is taking content without paying for it and forcing iFixit to use its own developer resources to fend off the data collection scheme.
