    I don’t think you understand what plagiarism is. When you profit off of someone else’s work, you’re plagiarizing. Libraries do not profit off of anything. OpenAI, however, is a for-profit endeavor.

      plagiarizing

      This is taking someone’s work and passing it off as your own. Did you not do a simple google search when there was some doubt to the definition, like I just did?

          Did you read that?

          Plagiarism can happen intentionally or unintentionally when a person uses another person’s ideas or words without citing the original source. Here are four common forms of plagiarism:

          • Copying another person’s words without using quotation marks or referencing the original source
          • Copying an author’s words without using quotation marks but using accurate footnotes to the original source
          • Paraphrasing an author’s ideas without including a reference to the original source
          • Rearranging an author’s exact words, even if there is a footnote to the original source

          Oh no, I plagiarized! lol

                Yes, can. It is capable of doing all those things and, again, if she is correct, will do so if prompted.

                  I think this is nonsense, but you’re saying the issue is that it doesn’t use quotes when someone asks it to quote a passage from her book? Is that true?

                    Nope, again, the issue is that it can regurgitate the entire book if prompted. Why you think that’s legal is beyond me. What if it had video. Should it be allowed to spit out all of Oppenheimer if prompted?
