I've been on two quiz shows and the vetting process is much more about whether you can talk intelligibly on camera than whether you know anything.

People can't help it though, can they? Doing it in the replies to this comment.

It's not eye-catching bad, but I think the most pathetically half-arsed lyric I've ever heard is Lenny Kravitz:
I wish that I could fly
Into the sky

Just like a dragonfly
I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas
In all degrees
To anywhere I please

Dylan's gf *cries throughout*
Woody Guthrie *dies throughout*
News announcer "reports tonight of a montage of 1960s events coming through. Times certainly are a changing"
Dylan "mumble"
Seeger "howdydoodly"

It's the 'pilfering' that's at issue. The AI outputs are informed by its training data in a similar way (one could argue) to the way a human's writing would be informed by all the things the human has read. I'm sympathetic to the idea that a right has been breached, but...

...i.e. that Tesco is powerful in comparison to copyright owners. Making the argument requires explaining why using published works to train AI is theft, something which can be reasonably denied.

It seems to be very popular in academia (or at least my bit of academia) which means it's worth posting on here to reach other academics, but you have to go to LinkedIn to speak to anyone else.
