Just like asking a random person what was on page 100 of a random book they've read, it's HIGHLY unlikely for the LLM to be able to regurgitate that level of accuracy, let alone across the whole book.

Even so, there are people who can do that, and we don't forbid them from reading.

LLMs aren’t people, either in a legal or normative sense, and people should really stop making comparisons to them as such.

That remains to be seen.

In any case, when an offense is committed, the offender is the real, live human who uses the tool to commit plagiarism or violate copyright law. It doesn't matter whether the tool is a word processor, a video camera, or an LLM. The output is what matters, not the input.
