>The cat is out of the box. Adapt or die. That's not how it works. AI is copying/stealing from people who actually create. "Laundered legal liability" as someone here so eloquently put it. When co-pilot reproduces GPL code verbatim, it's not AI, it's just convoluted copyright infringement. I have no doubts this is happening with anime too. The so called AI is just a thief. It's not creating new works, it's copying parts of works and making a composite.

I am also a thief in all of the same ways. When I write, I am doing nothing but laundering sentences and grammar rules from my English textbooks as well as sampling from the millions of sentences that I have read in my lifetime to compose into this comment as a response to your prompt. When I code, I heavily reference existing implementations and often only make minor stylistic changes, copying algorithms and data structures wholesale from memory. When I cook, I'm literally copying the contents of the cookbooks or cooking channels with a few minor substitutions at best. Unfortunately, I am not brilliant enough to come up with my own algorithms, recipes, or literary flourishes. Few people are truly "creators", to be honest, and even creators build off or derive from existing work.

It doesn't copy verbatim, neither does it copy parts. Sure, if you request "Sunflowers by Van Gogh" you will get something very close to Sunflowers by Van Gogh. That's because Van Gogh produced several similar works with sunflowers, because models are notoriously overfit on those, but more importantly because you asked for it specifically; you could have asked Google and get unlimited copies of Sunflowers that are much more precise. Good luck accidentally describing Sunflowers in abstract terms, though. So, you would be responsible for plagiarism if you publish a work of art created by someone while claiming it's yours, not the model creators.
