The book does not exist verbatim within the model. You cannot open the model and find the full text of some copyrighted work anywhere.
The model just trains a set of weights for a neural network, then probabilistically generates text in response to prompts.
And yeah, humans "input entire books verbatim" (aka, reading) and then regurgitate that knowledge later when they determine it is likely to be an appropriate response to a question or comment from someone else. It's really not that different. It doesn't even have to be a fact. How many responses on the Internet are just quotes from movies or TV shows?
