I’ve noticed that people tend to disapprove of AI trained on their profession’s data, but are usually indifferent or positive about other applications of AI.

For example, I know artists who are vehemently against DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, etc. and regard it as stealing, but they view Copilot and GPT-3 as merely useful tools. I also know software devs who are extremely excited about AI art and GPT-3 but are outraged by Copilot.

For myself, I am skeptical of intellectual property in the first place. I say go for it.

I'm actually fine with both. I think copyright/IP related to software needs to be toned down a lot. Software patents abolished.

In my opinion the only thing that should be an infringement regarding code is copying entire non trivial files or entire projects outright.

A 100 line snippet should not be copyrighteable. Only the entire work, which you could think as the composition of many of those snippets.
