AI code generation provides us with vast swaths of legacy code that was copied from sources with all sorts of licenses that may not be compatible with each other or the end result. #programming
Yeahhhh, or one might argue that AI generated code is a new work and thus ready to be given a new free-standing copyright using whatever terms the "prompter" feels like.
Of course current so-called "AI"s are all trained by reading lots of code, so it may also be possible to argue that nothing they produce can really be claimed to be truly "clean room" creations, even though technically the way they work pretty much can't copy any actual code (or anything else) from their training materials.
