> the code is taken from the LLM with no preexisting license

That's not good enough to comply with (b). The code must be specifically covered by an open-source license, it's not enough for it to just not have a license.

There's a difference between "no license, all rights reserved" and "no license, public domain". Up until recently, you could assume that not having a license meant the former. But treating the latter as the same would just be silly.

As far as I'm concerned, public domain counts as "an appropriate open source license".
