• Claude code source "leaks" in a mapfile
  • people immediately use the code laundering machines to code launder the code laundering frontend
  • now many dubious open source-ish knockoffs in python and rust being derived directly from the source

What's anthropic going to do, sue them? Insist in court that LLM recreating copyrighted code is a violation of copyright???

@jonny do LLMs trained on gpl code have to be gpl? I don't know whether code-as-data is equivalent to code as executable, but I had honestly never considered that issue before.
@srvanderplas @jonny who the fuck knows at this point? I would claim that ingesting GPL code is violating the GPL possibly, training AI with GPL code is violating the GPL but it's fine because it's fair use, and the resulting output is uncopyrightable. but I have no confidence whatsoever
