MODERATORS
Any use of a popular large language model likely violates the GPL and can be counted as plagarism. Vibe coders and LLM pushers have no good answer to being accused of plagarism.
This rule change doesn't really change anything other than making it easier for maintainers to filter out all the slop submissions and being able to punish users who use LLMs but don't disclose it.
Who even knows at this point. Many of the highest paid consultants, lawyers and lobbyists argue about whether creating models that regurgitate copyrighted material is covered by the datamining exception in EU copyright law. They don't benefit from a quick solution. I'm sure the situation in the US is just as dumb.
Licensing can only give you additional rights to use a copyrighted work, it can't really take away rights that you would have even without a license.
Imho, generative AI should probably be treated like (lossy) compression. Especially when models created based on works with the intention to create similar works.
