    Well. When I copy and paste source code into my program and compile it it also doesn’t retain the actual code. It’s still not allowed.

    If I on the other hand read source code, remember and reapply it in a sort of similar way later on then that’s totally fine. But that’s not what OpenAI did there. There wasn’t a human involved that read the articles and then used that knowledge to adjust the LLM.

    There question i would have is where is the line there? Does that mean that as soon as there is some automated process that uses the data it’s fine?

    E.g. could I have a script that reads all NYT articles, extracts interesting information and provides them in a different format to users?

      Yes, you can rewrite something in your own words and as it isn’t copied verbatim, then it isn’t infringement. You can’t copyright the idea of something.
