> Plagiarism is the *fraudulent representation* of another person's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions *as one's own original work*. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism The same way that you disagree when someone stretches the meaning of the work "talk" to encompass what GPT-3 does, I also disagree when you try to stretch the meaning of the word "plagiarism" to encompass what GPT-3 does (and I've explained exactly why: GPT-3 generates sequences of tokens, but makes no specific claim about the originality of the generated sequences of tokens). We can agree to disagree, if you can't accept that "plagiarism" literally involves more than just "copyright infringement" or "replicating someone else's work from statistical correlations" or anything along those lines: it must also involve fraud or some other form of misrepresentation. Either way, have a nice day.
