Should we grant them the benefit of doubt and believe it’s just poor wording?
Surely if an AI writes “foo” it’s because it’s learnt that everyone else writes that. It’s different from asking “suggest me an implementation of FFT”, and then pasting that in wholesale.
It’s similar to how research literature works. Eventually concepts like “computer” and “DNA” become so common that we don’t have to reference 1800s literature unless very pertinent to the question.

There is GPL code in the NetBSD tree already, such as GCC, but how it gets used is carefully controlled. If someone proposed adding something AI generated in a way that it was kept separate from everything else then it could potentially get approved.
