Hacker News Reader

Is there a more charitable way to read this than "Hamish Kerr is a shameless liar" or... ?

Yes. A completely reasonable read is: Claude was asked for something and responded with result based on work which exists online. So basically... Claude works at expected? (Same as other models)

The shadertoy example is just a few lines, so easy to train from. (And even that uses palette creation described on another blog)

I wonder how a disassembled and then scrambled code rates in this regard. Is it a piracy or a retell of a story? Is it something that perfectly makes sense? Because if that’s okay for some algo to retell copyrighted stuff without being in offense, then that’s a very bright future ahead of all.

No wonder companies stopped distributing software, and moved to the cloud. That way you can’t disassemble them right so?

Grab some popcorn and wait a bit. If Google-vs-Oracle can happen about reimplementing the API, we're definitely going to see a number of cases about the AI code in the future. And it's going to be way more interesting, because the threshold between copying and being inspired by is very fuzzy.
