Listen (or rather, read), it's very simple. Lookup the word plagiarism. If you are using any other person's work to 'generate' your own as you said, if you do not reference back to the original work (as in tell the readers where the original work is located and who wrote it) then this is plagiarizing. It is that simple.
Even if you do not take a sentence directly but paraphrase it to make it read differently but the meaning is the same, you still need to reference the work to used.
You admit harvesting data from another sites and you apologized for that. Fine, that is cool. But saying you are still using those data to generate your own data shows how ignorant you are.
