A while back I tried to get ChatGPT to recite the text of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to me, as a test of just how much copyrighted text it's willing to recite.

It got partway through the first sentence before freezing up, presumably due to a sensitivity to copyright.

So I suspect that at least OpenAI are taking significant steps already to prevent their systems from reciting copyrighted text verbatim.

I just tried it with bing chat and it actually explains it can't because it would violate the authors copyright.
