Very interesting, any chance you've got a citation for this? I'd like have some sort of proof next time I tell someone that they will happily plagiarize from single sources.

Even if it's not copying word for word, if it's not citing its data, it's still plagiarism. Plagiarism includes copying ideas without crediting their source.

[grayhatter]

so no way to prove this claim isn't something someone made up one day?

[schwartzworld]

Here's a counter question:

Have you ever seen chatgpt cite or credit it's sources?

[grayhatter]

I don't (yet) believe that what chatgpt does requires citation to be ethical/honest.

[schwartzworld]

It may depending on the source material it uses. Especially if you're publishing that material.
