A note about new AI models online today:
Amara.org is not part of Chat GPT or any other artificial intelligence platform organization. Some AI technologies might be using publicly accessible videos in their training models and are pulling the line "subtitles made by the Amara.org community" when it uses subtitles that were created on publicly accessible videos on Amara.org for their own AI training purposes. We have no control or interaction with the replies returned by ChatGPT or any other AI versions learning our world.
