A private social media comment got me thinking. I will gladly credit the author, with their permission.
“If a U.S. federal court says that you can’t copyright AI generated content, an appellate court upholds that ruling, and the SCOTUS refuses to hear the case, what are the implications for software generated by LLMs?”
Think about that the next time Company X publishes its marketing message “we use AI.”
What if Company X’s code and prompts were themselves written with AI?
Couldn’t Company Y take Company X’s non-copyrightable code and run it without penalty, like open source code?
Now Company X would be forced to prove that it does NOT use AI. For its code, anyway.
