> The fact that Firefox and Chrome and WebKit are likely buried in the training data somewhere might help them a bit, but it still looks to me more like an independent implementation that's influenced by those and many other sources.

They generate a statistically appropriate token based on a very small context window. And they are slightly nerfed not to reproduce everything verbatim because that would bring all sorts of lawsuits.

Of course they are not reproducing Webkit or Blink or Firefox verbatim. However, it's not an "independent implementation". That's why it's "stringing together a bunch of open-source components": >>46649586

Edit: also, this "independent implementation" cannot be compiled by their own CI and doesn't work, apparently.
