Well you see he ran it through in through an LLM, but LLMs are lossy, so who can say if the output was a direct result of the copyrighted code or if the model focused on his unique prompting words and conjured the output from its own latent space without referencing copyrighted input at all? /s

Alternatively, we could take the model makers’ view and say that if they didn’t want their code reused, they wouldn’t have made it publicly accessible on the internet.
