So you're just going to ignore the fact that we require humans to provide citations when they include someone else's writing or research in their own?

I didn't ignore it. But we do not require citations for every statement. Statements have value, citations notwithstanding.

I didn't say it should provide citations for every statement. We're talking about instances where the model reproduces text verbatim. If it is paraphrasing or creating new text then obviously it doesn't need to cite any more than a human would.

I don't understand what you're pushing back against, but I'm not standing there.
