Not that it will happen, but the most karmic result of the proliferation of AI coding would be that a bunch of commercial code gets GPL tainted and forced to be open sourced

Aaron Swartz was hounded and persecuted by overzealous prosecutors for a mass JSTOR download until he committed suicide. Sam Altman says that he deserves to violate copyright law in perpetuity because otherwise he can't make a fortune from a large language model. We are in the wrong timeline.

Have you seen anyone propose a GPL-style license that says if you feed the licensed work into an LLM, its output must be licensed on the same terms? Only issue I can think of is the courts have said LLM output is not copyrightable. But I suppose you could require the model weights be published.
