This is all just old man yells at cloud. People read your code when it’s OSS and synthesize the ideas in their brains, GPT is doing roughly the same thing. There is no license to stop that, and anything that’s not Apache 2.0 is just nonsense anyway.
- dtagames 4y agoExactly. After testing Copilot myself[0], I can see that the copy/pasted code is changed enough (by using variable and function names from your prompts or context) that no court would ever decide that you had infringed. JavaScript and other languages aren't copyrightable by themselves. It's not illegal nor immoral to observe others' code and write something orthogonal in the same language.
