What happens if a patch contains a non-trival amount of code that
cannot be copyrighted because it was assisted by AI?
The open questions around this are why the GNU project issued
provisional guidance to reject significant contributions developed with
an LLM.
If it is copyrightable, then who owns the copyright? If it's based
on
the training data, then the contributor may not have the rights to
share such a patch, and it cannot be legally redistributed under the GPL
(or any licence).
That is one of the clearer points right now - LLM-generated code cannot
be copyrighted.
Again, the GNU project guidance was to wait.
Hm, OK, to the project's detriment :-(
Anyway, if this is the case, you can launder any GPL project.
What does the mean?
Best regards
