Strange to see no mention of potential copyright violations found in LLM-generated code (e.g. LLMs reproducing code from Github verbatim without respecting the license). I would think that would be a pretty important consideration for any software development company, especially one that produces so much free software.

Is there current generation LLMs do this? I suppose I mean "do this any more than human developers do".

This shows that the problem with AI is philosophical, not practical
