Malus, which is a piece of “satire” but also fully functional, performs a “clean room” clone of open source software, meaning users could then sell, redistribute, etc. the software without crediting the original developers. But I have a hard time with the “clean room” argument since the LLM doing the behind-the-scenes work has already ingested the entire corpus of open source software – and somehow the output of the LLMs isn’t considered a derivative work.

Sounds like straight up bullshit.
It’s satire which brings attention to the problem. Read the reviews on the site.
It’s obviously not clean room since the original code was in the training data.
It feels like a very wierd compression algorithm
Yep. But good luck getting a court to agree with you.
Omg Imagine if half of the case is just an ML course to teach the jury what training data is.
That sounds painful. Absolutely no shade to the lovely older person I overheard today say: “so how do you get the little folks on the screen to know what buttons I pressed?”
But I’m guessing it could be similar to music copywrite law where jurors don’t have to understand audio engineering to know two samples sound the same.
Nope the class will be dropped down to teach all the basics and then up to vector databases and word embeddings to understand the case.
Jury #7: “But it is fine to do it because Facebook said so”
And you teach all of them the amount of data facebook takes from them. ALL of it.
It will be fun watching those users who first make the jump to the new project.
