Like many cutting-edge A.I. technologies, Copilot developed its skills by analyzing vast amounts of data. In this case, it relied on billions of lines of computer code posted to the internet. Mr. Butterick, 52, equates this process to piracy, because the system does not acknowledge its debt to existing work. His lawsuit claims that Microsoft and its collaborators violated the legal rights of millions of programmers who spent years writing the original code.

The suit is believed to be the first legal attack on a design technique called “A.I. training,” which is a way of building artificial intelligence that is poised to remake the tech industry. In recent years, many artists, writers, pundits and privacy activists have complained that companies are training their A.I. systems using data that does not belong to them.

Not only that, but instances of A.I. (references left to reader) or Machine Learning, are trained on datasets that result in prejudices of one sort or another.

It's "kind of like" building a Frankenstein monster by trial and error, not knowing if the brain came from Max Delbrück or (use your imagination).

P.S. there was a real Max Delbrück, Nobel Prize winner in 1969.
