    A while back I tried to get ChatGPT to recite the text of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone to me, as a test of just how much copyrighted text it’s willing to recite.

    It got partway through the first sentence before freezing up, presumably due to a sensitivity to copyright.

    So I suspect that at least OpenAI are taking significant steps already to prevent their systems from reciting copyrighted text verbatim.
