    It’s not plagiarism if it says it’s her book, lol.

    What are your feelings on public libraries? And does it spit out the entire book, or just excerpts?

      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?
