> I think it's a useful analogy to compare OpenAI to a human collaborator. Frankly I don’t buy this. It’s not a human or a collaborator. It’s a tool. This is like saying it’s not Microsoft’s fault if they extract a bunch of data from people’s Excel sheets because they willingly put it into the program. Anthropomorphizing software is ignorant and foolhardy | ||||||||||||||

Tools don’t turn around and scoop you. What OpenAI did here was use the same tool that the researcher did which might have coupled their work together. | ||||||||||||||

Surely a tool that can reason, cheat, communicate and often steal is dumb as a pitchfork and a shovel. | ||||||||||||||
