Plagiarism is an academic thing, not a legal one.
Potential copyright issues with the output of LLM-based applications are caused by the training INPUT for the LLM being copyrighted.

@denki @carnage4life no, that's not how copyright wotks.
Otherwise you'd perpetually owe your schoolbooks' publishers licensing fees for having learned from them.

LLMs can recall exact matches. In that case they would reproduce someone else's work verbatim (or close enough). Every time this happens, they may infringe on the copyright of the original author.
If I were to reproduce a big enough sample of any of my school books, I would potentially be on the hook for copyright infringement as well. But unlike an LLM, I can not recall my school books exactly.
@denki @carnage4life "comment section" does not replace professional legal advie.
#NotLegalAdvice but you better understand the legal ramifications that claiming AI can do "copyrightable works" becuase that would be the necesity for any copyright violation being possible.
Because that shit will more likely be used to rent-seek on law-abiding people and make everyone who learned from books a perpetual debt peon rather that restricting #TechBros at rentseeking.

»"comment section" does not replace professional legal advie.«
Of course not. I just noticed that the first commenter raised the same issue I did, hence the "coincidentally".
