The alternate here is that Harry Potter is written with sentences that match the typical patterns of English and so, when you prompt with a part of the text, the LLM can complete it with above-random accuracy

Anything that can tell you what the typical patterns of English is, is going to be a language model by definition.

My point is that this might just prove that Harry Potter is the sort of prose “fancy autocomplete” would produce and not all that original.

EDIT Actually, on rereading, I see I replied to the wrong comment.

Or else, LLMs show that copyright and IP are ridiculous concepts that should be abolished
