AI is just unauthorised plagiarism at a bigger scale

20 May, 2026

AI takes in all the input, whether the original authors have consented or not, and do some "learning", and then the AI companies sell these learned result to humans, without compensating the original authors.

Worse, the customer of these AI companies (AI tools bro) sell the prompted / processed result to other customers, profitting off things AI has copied from all over the internet.

Is this what the pinnacle of human is? Lazy and greedy?

I research and write e-commerce related tutorials on my own, and a few other lazy website authors just ask ChatGPT to copy a few well performing tutorial online, and then they published it as their own.

I found out this because they ranked higher than me in Google search result, and then when I read their article, their article contains links to my actual website, with the exact link text (?!) , which means they didnt bother to check and remove, and thats how I found out.
