this is not true, smh. See Oracle vs. Google.
- int_19h 4y agoOracle v. Google involved actual Java (declarations) code being copied; that it was a derived work wasn't seriously disputed there.
- endisneigh 4y agoCoPilot will return actual GPL code verbatim.
- int_19h 4y agoYes, and that's why I personally believe that the model itself should be considered a derived work of such code. But OP was specifically talking about "code patterns".
- endisneigh 4y agoCopying the code verbatim would fall under copying the code pattern. You talking about changing the name of the variables or something?
