"Good artists copy, great artists steal, the best artists make lies seem true."
– Steve Jobs.
Actually, Jobs self-servingly refactored then misattributed to Picasso the line,
"Good artists copy, great artists steal."
Jobs did seem to properly remarket Picasso's intent, though, as Picasso had said:
"When there's anything to steal, I steal."
"What does it mean, an artist copies? It is normal. The important thing is to do it better."
"Art is a series of masterly thefts."
Taking inspiration is one thing, this is just a knock-off. The visual language is nearly identical. The difference is in whether you are building upon something else, or just copying it wholesale and contributing nothing of your own.
My argument is strengthened by the fact that they didn’t. There is so much technology between the raw data and the model itself. It’s absurd to suggest LLMs are simply a product of the information.
