I hope everything you make is public domain, then. Otherwise that would be hypocritical.

One thing is that most if not all models more likely than not were trained on leaked Microsoft and other proprietary code sets.

For projects like WINE or ReactOS that absolutely have to enforce hard firewalls between people with "insider knowledge" to avoid contamination and resulting legal issues, this alone makes the use of AI for coding highly problematic.

If you believe that, then why aren't LLMs free to use for every person on Earth?

If you want anybody to keep making anything, including programmers, artists, and writers, you're going to have to pay them somehow.

Anthropic and OpenAI would not have a product at all without the contributions of thousands of non-consenting humans. Yet they somehow have the gall to charge customers a premium.
