My understanding is that the copyright applies to reproductions of the work, which this is not. If I provide a summary of a copyrighted summary of a copyrighted work, am I in violation of either copyright because I created a new derivative summary?
Aren't summaries and reviews covered under fair use? Otherwise Newspapers have been violating copyrights for hundreds of years.
Not a lawyer so I can't be sure. To my understanding a summary of a work is not a violation of copyright because the summary is transformative (serves a completely different purpose to the original work). But you probably can't copy someone else's summary, because now you are making a derivative that serves the same purpose as the original.
So here are the issues with LLMs in this regard:
That's either overfitting and means the training went wrong, or plain chance. Gazillions of bonkers court cases over "did the artist at some point in their life hear a particular melody" come to mind. Great. Now that's flanked with allegations of eidetic memory we have reached peak capitalism.
Don't all three of those points apply to humans?
