    Does this have DRM or something to check the text isn’t copyrighted? Or does it just not let you input a custom text? How does the

    non-copyrighted

    feature work?

    Edit: sorry, I should have read the article. Here’s my answer.

    You can use any text that you want, but please, do not choose something copyrighted. The New York Times is currently suing OpenAI for training ChatGPT on its copyrighted material. Reddit’s data is uniquely valuable, since it’s not subject to those kinds of copyright restrictions, so it would be tragic if users were to decide to intermingle such a robust corpus of high-quality training data with copyrighted text.
