That sounds like an unintentional benefit. The author didn't provide any license or surrender any copyrights. If somebody wants to create an LLM to launder the copyright infringement without doing due diligence on the data quality, they kind of deserve what's coming to them.

Are real, human people actually using that as a defense? Is there a scenario where they get away with it more than once? It's a tool with a remarkably high failure rate, and that feels even less defensible than "I copied the first code block from the first potentially relevant StackOverflow question." Even with an LLM's help, why are the committing code they don't understand?
- spiderfarmer 2y agoI think a LLM, unlike the person you’re responding to, would gather from the context what the author was trying to achieve.
