chatgpt actually has some ideas about this

question: How could the people who generate used in an ai language model be paid for their work?

answer: There are several ways in which the people who generate content for an AI language model could be paid for their work:

    Royalty-based payment: Content creators could receive a percentage of the revenue generated from the use of their content in the AI language model.

    Token-based payment: If the AI language model is built on a blockchain, content creators could be paid in tokens that could be traded for cryptocurrency or fiat currency.

    Partnership with content publishers: The developers of the AI language model could partner with content publishers to compensate the creators of the scraped content.

Seems like this AI model doesn't understand very well how it works[0], which I suppose can be explained (maybe there aren't that many explanations in the corpus), but it's also quite ironic.

[0] The answers focus on the technicalities of how the payments could be arranged, but the much bigger problem is that it's not clear who the payments should be going to (there's no immediately obvious or unique way of attributing a given output to specific training inputs, that would require a separate model with a lot of room for judgement/modelling decisions; or a new type of LLM that has that feature baked in).
