Unknowingly uding potentially copyrighted code from an LLM in a FLOSS project opens us up to being attacked via being sued for infringement, which most small devs can’t afford to fight, especially in the US’s current extremely pro-corporate courts. It’s putting a target on your back for down the road when it becomes profitable for patent trolls to use AI to try to scan for copyrighted code on public codeb ases. Big tech could do the same to squash an open source competitor.
