[elsewhere releases text version of Tian Keyu's interview: ByteDance lawsuit claims compensation of about 500000 yuan in the first instance and is currently under trial in the second instance]
Golden Finance reported that on October 12, according to the text version of Tian Keyu's interview released by the podcast Elsewhere, the first instance of the case of ByteDance suing Tian Keyu has been decided, and the court decided to compensate him about 500000 yuan, rejected his remaining claim, and then Byte filed an appeal, which is currently in the second instance. Tian Keyu stated that ByteDance originally claimed a compensation of over 8 million yuan and demanded a public apology. 500000 yuan is approximately equivalent to three years of internship salary plus the legal expenses of the company's lawsuit. He agrees with the judgment of compensation. He denied multiple descriptions in the online version, stating that the incident was not a "poisoning" and did not involve offense or defense, but rather that he used GPT to write a program to stop or freeze another intern's program for about ten days, a total of about five times, and not for "two months"; He also denies blaming others and claiming that the best paper was completed by seizing resources, and claims that he has never been short of cards. Tian Keyu stated that his behavior constitutes a violation of discipline and he has apologized in internal meetings and court. He won the Best Paper award at NeurIPS 2024, but his offer was cancelled by a large modeling company and he decided to start his own business. The first investor was Meng Xing, a partner at Wuyuan Capital.
