And if that wasn't bad enough, Mozilla has embraced AI (in its code, too), while Linux considers relaxing AI code policy and has some examples of patches co-authored by LLMs.

I am still yet to think hard about what I want to do about it. But the world I knew is no more.

Wait a second. Isn't the output of GenAI supposed to be public domain?

If Microslop, and other big tech companies are writing 30% of it's code with AI, couldn't we demand they release those lines under public domain?
