Stealing in the sense that it's the exact same joke.

It's like a YouTuber creating a 'reaction' video that adds nothing but their face in the corner of the screen. Adding a link to the original video doesn't suddenly make it reasonable.

I think it's more equivalent to someone making a meme of a standup routine and changing text in order to make fun of something else. The original was a joke about general data sanitization circa 2007, this one is about the dangers of using unfiltered, unreviewed content for AI training.

Except this "routine" is word for word clone. It is more like people retelling the same political joke with only difference being the politician's name.... No one calls it new joke, or "homage". We call it "yes, this joke was given to Moses on stone tablet" ๐Ÿ˜Š

If I watch something funny I'll quote it with my friends, but I wouldn't share a clip of me and my friends if I wanted to share the joke with someone. I'd share a clip of the actual joke.
