The use of large language models (“LLMs”) has exploded in recent years, including in the generation of source code. But even as their usage gains popularit...
People like you are the reason I gave up on the things getting better. What you people propose has nothing to do with how the world works we live in. It’s all based on how the world should work.
You can, as of this very moment, download a 16 GB LLM and run it on your local computer. Or any bigger version, if you happen to have a beefy computer. LLMs are software. Good luck banning software. This is the internet.
ALSO, even if you do happen to be able to ban AI training facilities and such in the U.S., and those models become outdated, you can even go download some Chinese models too! They are not going away.
Why would we want to license vibecoded slop code built with a system that is (in most cases) probably and admittedly actively using data from sources with incompatible licences or no licences at all.

You answered your own question. I don’t know what you try to say, but the article and our discussion is explaining if and why licensing code that is vibe coded is possible or makes sense at all. And you point the problem out that this is problematic and probably not possible in good faith. So its not about what we want, but about if and what is possible.
Like licensing?
No, like banning LLMs.
You do live in reality, do you?
Ah yes, the reality that consists in giving up on all proper solutions out of being “down to earth”, effectively solving nothing.
The proper not possible solution… Sure…

Good luck with banning llms, seems realistic.
Yeah, I forgot how easy it is to hide datacenters and massive data collection. Really, really hard to enforce, huh.

What the fuck are you talking about? 🙄
Right but why would we want to license vibecoded slop?
Irrelevant question. For licensing and copyright questions, quality of code is not important.
See Microsoft and Google.

Indeed, though I was just rephrasing the question from the person you were replying to.
Responded to the wrong comment, apologies.
