If your issue with the result is plagiarism, what would have been a non-plagiarizing way to reproduce the information? Should the system not have reproduced the information at all? If it shouldn't reproduce things it learned, what is the system supposed to do?
Or is the issue that it reproduced an idea that it probably only read once? I'm genuinely not sure, and the original comment doesn't have much to go on.
The normal way to reproduce information which can only be found in a specific source would be to cite that source when quoting or paraphrasing it.
But the system isn't designed for that, why would you expect it to do so? Did somebody tell the OP that these systems work by citing a source, and the issue is that it doesn't do that?
It, uh... sounds like the flaw is in the design of the system, then? If the system is designed in such a way that it can't help but do unethical things, then maybe the system is not good to have.
"[massive deficiency] isn't a flaw of the program because it's designed to have that deficiency"
it is a problem that it plagiarizes, how does saying "it's designed to plagiarize" help????
"the murdermachine can't help but murdering. alas, what can we do. guess we just have to resign ourselves to being murdered" says murdermachine sponsor/advertiser/creator/...
Please stop projecting positions onto me that I don't hold. If what people told the OP was that LLMs don't plagiarize, then great, that's a different argument from what I described in my reply, thank you for the answer. But you could try not being a dick about it?
no
