Obviously that line is extremely blurry (E.g. How much user-generated content is needed for the result to be "user-driven"?)– but wholesale copies of AI responses are well outside that discussion in my view, because the amount of user input they include is exactly zero percent, which makes them de facto plagiarism. | |

But, especially after reading Machavity's answer, I lean towards his idea that we can't treat these answers as "tool generated"– we have to consider them as plagiarized, precisely because they include zero actual input from the author. That's the key distinction. Either a post is from the author to some degree or it's not. These aren't. | |
| Dec 5, 2022 at 18:26 | comment | added | VLAZ | "But no network site allows plagiarized content, which is what wholesale copies of AI-generated responses are." this is...debatable. It's a tool - you give it input, it gives you output. The rights to both are given to you. But even if that wasn't specified, it's no more plagiarism than using other tools. Since tools can't own content. The TOS of the tool does state that you should not be presenting the content as your own but that's hardly enforceable by non-affiliates. But mostly, the whole legality doesn't matter that much - the output tends to be garbage. Should be the driving factor. | |
