@daringfireball Curious how you consider, say, finding out a work of art you were appreciating was plagiarized. I suspect your opinion of it would indeed change pretty immediately, and that it would not be a choice. Say, looking at Roy Lichtenstein’s worst examples, which were effectively direct tracings.

Art is not devoid of the circumstance of its creation. This would come a lot closer to how Inman and others consider generative AI.
