    • Muffins/Swiss rolls - depends on how much it is but I get it being a quick comfort food. However, check if there’s a bakery of some kind (including
      Chinese / Latino bakeries) near you. It’s nearly as cheap or cheaper and much fresher. Good bread there too.
    • Pasta sauce: my wife actually just makes a Alfredo sauce from scratch and it seems to be just a bit more complicated than Mac and cheese sauce. Flour, milk, and cheese. Probably a lot more cost effective.
    • Instead of a red tomato sauce I would buy diced tomatoes ( or those fire riasted ones) and dump them over noodles. It tastes better than the bottled red sauce.
    • Mac and cheese: see above - but also, if you’re going to get it, get the box. The single serve things are worse than the generic box Mac.
      -froze spinach is great. Try throwing that in whatever you’re cooking. Never goes bad. Already bite sized.
      -Also, you gotta report that grocery store. Cats are friends not food.










  • I can take the entirety of Harry Potter, run it thru chat gpt to ‘rewrite in the style of Lord of the rings’, and rename the characters. Assuming it all works correctly, everything should be reworded. But, I would get deservedly sued into the ground.
    News articles might be a different subject matter, but a blatant rewording of each sentence, line by line, still seems like a valid copyright claim.
    You have to add context or nuance or use multiple sources. Some kind of original thought. You can’t just wholly repackage someone else’s work and profit off of that.


  • I doubt they did the ‘rewrote this text like this’ prompt you state. This would just come out in any trial if it was that simple and would be a giant black mark on the paper for filing a frivolous lawsuit.

    If we rule that out, then it means that gpt had article text in its knowledge base, and nyt was able to get it to copy that text out in its response.
    Even that is problematic. Either gpt does this a lot and usually rewrites it better, or it does that sometimes. Both are copyright offenses.

    Nyt has copyright over its article text, and they didn’t give license to gpt to reproduce it. Even if they had to coax the text out thru lots of prompts and creative trial and error, it still stands that gpt copied text and reproduced it and made money off that act without the agreement of the rights holder.
