A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Why is plagiarism an accomplishment? I can reproduce the entire Harry Potter book with a scanner and some OCR software.
It's a sign that the AI companies are complicit in industrial level copyright violation. There was a recent US court decision that a book publisher brought again Anthropic. In it the judge rules that the use of the book contents was "spectacularly transformative" (and therefore "fair use") because the resulting machine did not copy the work.
People are trying to prove the judge wrong. It does copy the work.
