If legimate, then failure. The precondition implies the postcondition.
I don't personally think running copyright material through a magic box that you write lots of pretty marketing about removes copyright. Much like running it through grep to delete the copyright notices doesn't remove the copyright. Or deleting the licence file from a fork.
Seems totally obvious to me, but only because I don't buy that there's an artificial intelligence composing code from scratch that just happens to have the same expletives in comments that the GPL code did.
- tinco 3y agoI, nor anyone else in this thread believes that the copyright is removed from the output of the LLMs, in fact we're arguing quite the opposite. Your point is obvious to everyone. The question is why do you think anyone else believes differently?
- JonChesterfield 3y agoI'm inferring from people using GitHub copilot that they're using co-pilot. Reflexivity. So either they believe it isn't a copyright erasure tool, or they believe it is and don't care, or they haven't formed a belief in either direction. That case analysis looks complete to me.
- tinco 3y agoAh, right so that's only true if you believe that all output from Github Copilot infringes on copyright. Most responses from LLM's don't include copyrighted information, or at least not substantial portions of such.
- marshray 3y agoIt's funny how this topic seems to make people's brains and reading comprehension just switch off.
