    Which I’m guessing they cannot attest, if LLMs truly have the 2-10% plagiarism rate that multiple studies seem to claim. It’s an absurd rule, if you ask me. (Not that I would know, I’m not a lawyer.)

      Where are you seeing the 2-10% figure?

      In my experience code generation is most affected by the local context (i.e. the codebase you are working on). On top of that a lot of code is purely mechanical - code generally has to have a degree of novelty to be protected by copyright.

        Imagine how broken it would be otherwise. The first person to write a while loop in any given language would be the owner of it. Anyone else using the same concept would have to write an increasingly convoluted while loop with extra steps.

          Sounds like an origin story for recursion.
