How isethat a "clean room"? The program is scanning the actual software and making a version based on what it learned from the scan.
I think for this to be legit, you'd have to give malus a spec (no source code) of the program and then have it generate new code from that.
Mali's uses two AIs for that. One creates a spec and the other implements that spec.
But that doesn't even work, because you would have to prove that the original software was not part of the training set. And with it being an LLM from a big corporation, that chance is close to zero.
