"Stealing" changes definitions every few years now, most recently with the mainstream suddenly deciding RIAA and news publishers are no longer the scum of the Earth but their new best friends, and reversing previous definition to now include IP transgression as theft, just so they can say AI companies are stealing shit.
Yes, but the quote about art has nothing to do with that.
The quote says that many artists borrow, meaning everyone still knows who did the original work and the artist is just riffing on it. But great artists transform the work so completely that it becomes theirs.
Is it just me or is this guys posts very much an eye sore?
Worse than llm prose.
