Maybe, but the LLM did not recite the chardet source code so that argument does not appear to apply here.

- irishcoffee 8mo agoThis whole "today" fascination with chardet is a classic example of manipulation. I suggest you disregard this term instead of defending it.

In the case of a software library, it is a tool, not a work of art. Its beauty is in accomplishing a specific, useful task. If we can accept musicians drawing inspiration from all the music they've ever listened to, we should be able to do the same for software, especially when its internal code is unrecognizable from a similar tool.

Unlike with music, in software traditionally a (human) programmer could be chosen who haven't "heard" (i.e. read the original code). That has traditionally called a "clean room" implementation (not to be confused with the software development process called "clean room").
