Plagiarism is clearly in reference to IP. IP laws only exist to benefit the ruling class who have money to enforce them. This is evident from the countless cases of poor artists having their work stolen who cannot afford to fight it.
You can run AI offline, it doesn’t make thinking a piece of code loves you any better.
So let me follow here… the poster calling out these LLMs for harvesting the work of all artists around the world en-masse in effect plagiarism (Because images and works generated are composed out of the internal dataset of the model) is unethical?
The argument that you’re making is that all IP laws only exist to benefit the ruling classes, but it is the ignoring and disregard for these IP laws that is affecting all artists at all levels. Additionally, again, this post was calling out the data harvesting - the merits of IP laws as they currently stand was not mentioned.
You can morally plagiarize by violating an artist’s authorship of their work, regardless of what the law says. Institutions only capture the sin and fold it into part of the system, as even when protected by law, passing off another’s work as your own is a shitty thing.
This is part of what’s wrong with IP law btw. According to law, large entertainment pieces like movies or games are not owned by any of the people who worked on them, but by those who donated capital to the project. Capital in, IP out.
Yup. The only justification for this limit is capitalism, where people can obtain money by selling culture that goes beyond the material. If one didn’t need to produce value to survive or couldn’t earn a ton of wealth and power through the sale of culture, the limit would be obsolete.

What’s wrong with IP laws is that they lock away human culture from social use.
There should be no limit on how you or I use a concept or an idea.
