If i pay a consultant to write code out generally belongs to me. Why would a tool like an llm be any different if you are a paying customer. If you are on the free model shrug….
- xandrius 2y agoIncorrect, it clearly belongs to you if there is an agreement with the transfer of such rights otherwise you are in murky waters. LLMs are not individuals automatically covered by copyright laws, as they are simply tools based off other (often) copyrighted work. This means that the initial copyright infringement is still a valid concern, hence these discussions. If it was a easy and clear cut as just shrugging, the conversation wouldn't be so prevalent.

- xandrius 2y agoGenerally, if they never had the rights to something, they cannot transfer them to someone else.
