Plagiarism detection company Copyleaks released a report stating that 60% of the output generated by the GPT-3.5 model contains some form of plagiarized content. Copyleaks uses a proprietary scoring method that considers factors such as text similarity, minor alterations, and paraphrasing to calculate a 'similarity score.' The highest similarity scores were found in fields like computer science, physics, and psychology, while the lowest were in drama, humanities, and English. OpenAI has stated that it has taken measures to limit inadvertent memory usage, and its terms also prohibit deliberate reverse-engineering of content. Aside from the New York Times lawsuit, creators are also attempting to assert rights regarding AI training.
