Key takeaways include: that arguments based on our usual criteria of /contribution/ and /accountability/ are brittle; that the problem lies with authorship being a vague term (cf. sorites paradox); that we are using posterior reasoning to justify our intuitions; and that reliable intuitions about the actual nature of the emergent(!) source-AI-author system need more work. A practical policy proposal rounds it off: empower the authors, use meaningful acknowledgements, quantify contributions.
