   Slightly offtopic, but made me wonder.

   Can you copyright things like this now that LLMs exist? I mean, up until now if a small startup has a great idea they will get bought out by big tech which will integrate (or kill) their tech. But now with LLMs can the likes of OpenAI just tell their model to make something that works similar to X (such as this project) and then get round copying laws and negate being behind the curve?

   EDIT: switched to the correct spelling of copyright.

      ianal but copyright law has nothing to say about being sherlocked. it's happening - virtually any software you can think of has some shit slop clone out there already
