The second point on your reactions “It’s been done before” is very crucial.

That defeats the point of your argument that “AI generates a game. It comes up with rules for the game”.

No, it doesn’t. It plagiraised the game and pretended to come up with it. It just used a random puzzle game that it had on its training set.

It’s like asking it to write a poem and getting the same exact poem from a random google search. It didn’t come up with it. It just copied it. It’s not as amazing as you say it is.

Also if you look I comments you can see that it’s not even just one game. There are several games that are exactly like that. Which means more probability of having it in a training set.

No, it's not. A better comparison would be a poem that feels the same as an existing one and using the same prose but with its own words. Or any musical plagiarism dispute where the song is clearly different but similar enough that it needs to be decided by court. ChatGPT is not just copypasting a puzzle game here.

Ha ha, and what do you think us humans are doing?

Only a small percentage of our output is unique/original, otherwise we live to produce very similar output to what we've had as input.

Common phrases, hell all languages are examples of this. Mimicry of behaviours; it's literally the learning process that evolution gave us that puts us (and other animals) above much simpler creatures.

GPT isn't perfect, but it's like a dog observing that you fetch the newspaper every morning and then it starts fetching it itself for you, then the neighbour is like "well, it's not _originaaal_".

It remains to be seen whether the lawyers agree with you.

I'm not saying it's not plagiarism, just that it's not a copypaste.
