The blatent use of "AI" to strip copyleft and claim that obvious derivatives are "reimplementations" has begun. This must be fought. Start filing license violation bug reports and abuse reports on projects like this.

@dalias If LLM output can't be copyrighted as SCOTUS seems to have decided, then it also can't be MIT licensed. You can't license what you don't own and you can't own LLM output, it's public domain.

@gooba42 And that's ignoring all the fun of what interpretations other jurisdictions might have. Jurisdictions in which things are using that module and now have to block the new version that has no clear entitlement for them to use it. 🤡

@dalias I'm sure trade secrets or other confidentiality limitations apply to stuff I do at work but the copyright questions are still going to spin off some interesting litigation.
