A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The "knowledge" is not the copyrighted works, unless it can reproduce them in full. Shannon and amount of entropy calculations can come in handy when deciding whether a given size neural network is even capable of holding a copy of the works.
In that regard, a collage is less of a transformative work, since it fully reproduces the original works... and there is no lower bound to how much or what quality of input a human needs to add to a collage for it to be transformative, so "a human spitting garbage" sounds like a valid enough transformation.
