Some of the worlds largest tech companies trained their AI models on datasets that included transcripts of more than 173,000 YouTube videos without permission. Thats according to an investigation from Proof News, which laid out how Apple, NVIDIA and Anthropic, among other companies, used transcripts of YouTube videos from more than 48,000 channels.
