A new report from plagiarism detector Copyleaks found that 60% of OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 outputs contained some form of plagiarism.
Why it matters: Content creators from authors and songwriters to The New York Times are arguing in court that generative AI trained on copyrighted material ends up spitting out exact copies.
“Plagiarism detection company claims LLM conditions plagiarism according to their detector.”
I wonder how many student written essays also contain ‘plagiarism’ according to their tool.
Probably very few. The bias for these companies is in false negatives, not false positives, since false positives create controversy when students appeal a ruling.
The bias here was certainly to come up with a lot of false positives for advertising; kinda like anti-virus companies do it.
100% iirc, there are only so many ways to write about how the blue curtains indicate the character is feeling depressed or something.
