OpenAI staffer: data from paid work is the data model that will last
shyamalanadkat · x · 2026-11-05
Shyamal Anadkat of OpenAI argues that "the data model that will last is data generated by paid work" — implying freely scraped web data is running out, and durable training-data value will come from real commercial transactions and paid labor output. It echoes ongoing industry debate about high-quality data scarcity and the limits of synthetic data.
