I think it's important for people to also truly understand that generative machine learning models like ChatGPT also only "know" what they've seen before. There's no interpretation or synthesis. It merely regurgitates what it's seen, with some sampling from a probability distribution.
This means, if you're asking for something niche, and it's only seen what you're prompting it for once (or, really, the same text repeatedly across multiple websites) , there's a very good chance that it will just recreate that artifact wholesale.
Which means you need to be cognizant of what the license for that material is before you use it in a product!
