I've been waiting for something like this to appear. Not just a "plagiarism detector" but something that actually identifies the data in the training pool that most closely represent a particular AI model output. You could do the same for text and images too, and I'm surprised this is the first one that I've heard of.
I'm not a fan of the MAFIAA but if this type of reverse-search tech can hold AI companies to account then it's a step towards reining them in.
When it comes to stuff like copyright lawsuits against AI companies, the only way you can fight big money (at least in the US) is with more money.
We've heard about it before alright, some students today do deliberate mistakes in their works cause writing phrases correctly flags you as AI by university's anti-AI AI. We will get real artists flagged, I'm sure of it.
