The AI-rewrite should be considered a derivative, & therefore subject to the parent-license, I believe.
Except that AI doesn't have any right to copyright, & therefore to licensing.
Which means that it's just an illegal derivative made by a tool.

Not sure why downvoted, this is the correct take
AI Bros are fucking wild.
This whole "we don't want the GPL" movement is ridiculous. The modern open source ecosystem exists because of the GPL, and moving away from it means rapid reversion to straight up theft of code by big corporations.
Even more ridiculous when they vibe code to do it
Anything "vibe coded" is almost certainly stealing GPL code. Not like the industry hasn't been doing that for years, but now they don't even need to hire engineers to steal the code, they just close their eyes and pretend it's all their own.
All about open source! Feel free to ask questions, and share news, and interesting stuff!
