A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You have really meandered off the path of what I was talking about. But please, meander. It's interesting.

Well, that's what the person you replied to was saying. Essentially the "AI" is only reading the book, it's not copying the book.

I could rewrite the entire Lord of the rings series in my own words and it wouldn't be copyright infringement. I could sit there with the movies on repeat and the books all open for reference, I don't owe the rights holder anything in that case, as long as I'm but reproducing their work.

They’re just trolling. Feel free to block and ignore, it’s the best way of dealing with them until moderation is more reliable.
