     @lanodan @SuperDicq @piggo ChatGPT doesn't copy code, it really creates new code.

     @SuperDicq @piggo GPL brainrot I see, MIT is a free software license.
     
     The problem of Microsoft ChatGPT/CoPilot/… is: They do not give the copyright notice with the code.

     @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @piggo@piggo.space You can safely add MIT code to a GPL project, just retain the copyright notice.

     @piggo@piggo.space You mean, it generates code everyone can legally use in their project as long as they are building free software, which you should be doing anyway?

     @lain@lain.com @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @piggo@piggo.space It uses existing code to do so however, it's transformative.
     
     If you make a modified version of something, the original copyright terms still apply.
     
     According to the current laws only humans are capable of creating original works.

     @lanodan @SuperDicq @piggo copilot did that, but not chatgpt afaik. copilot now has a setting to prevent it from using existing code.

     @lain @SuperDicq @piggo There's been numerous examples of large functions copied verbatim, including with the author's comments. Meaning it doesn't go under the originality threshold.
     
     And I wouldn't try to go with "fair use" for software development because it's a mess, specially internationally.
