if i learn a book by heart, and then go around making money by reciting it, then that's illegal. same thing.
That’s not what AI is doing though. A better analogy using your book example would be learning a book by heart, then going and writing a new book in that same style.
Is that illegal? No.
but that's not what they're doing when they're spitting out open source code verbatim, with no attribution or license
They don’t do that.
except that they regularly do. It isn't even news at this point
can you please show me some examples? Should be easy to find them based on your comment.
