Watching a video or reading an article by a human isn’t copyright infringement, why then if an “AI” do it then it is? I believe the copyright infringement it’s made by the prompt so by the user not the tool.
Fair use depends on a lot, and just being a small amount doesn’t factor in. It’s the actual use. Small amounts just often fly under the nose of legal teams.
Fair use is a four factor test amount used is a factor but a low amount being used doesn’t strictly mean something is fair use. You could use a single frame of a movie and have it not qualify as fair use.
When a school professor “prompts” you to write an essay and you, the “tool” go consume copyrighted material and plagiarize it in the production of your essay is the infringement made by the professor?
If you read a book or watch a movie and get inspired by it to create something new and different, it’s plagiarism and copyright infringement?
If that were the case the majority of stuff nowadays it’s plagiarism and copyright infringement, I mean generally people get inspired by someone or something.
You do realize that AI is just a marketing term, right? None of these models learn, have intelligence or create truly original work. As a matter of fact, if people don’t continue to create original content, these models would stagnate or enter a feedback loop that would poison themselves with their own erroneous responses.
Except that the information it gives you is often objectively incorrect and it makes up sources (this happened to me a lot of times). And no, it can’t do what a human can. It doesn’t interpret the information it gets and it can’t reach new conclusions based on what it “knows”.
I honestly don’t know how you can even begin to compare an LLM to the human brain.

If you read an article, then copy parts of that article into a new article, that’s copyright infringement. Same with ais.
Depends on how much is copied, if it’s a small amount it’s fair use.

What does this human is going to do with this reading ? Are they going to produce something by using part of this book or this article ?
If yes, that’s copyright infringement.
Because it’s software.

If you quote the sources and write it with your own words I believe it isn’t, AFAIK “AI” already do that.
Copilot lists its sources. The problem is half of them are completely made up and if you click on the links they take you to the wrong pages
It definitely does not cite sources and use it’s own words in all cases - especially in visual media generation.
And in the proposed scenario I did write the student plagiarizes the copyrighted material.
So your question is “is plagiarism plagiarism”?
No, that is not the question nor a reasonable interpretation of it.

AIs don’t think. They copy with extra steps.
