Do you make a living off your code's likeness? That is, is there a wholesomepotato device, like Duff's or Not John Carmack's fast inverse square root, that's immediately recognizable as having been created by you, and you get paid for its appearance on late night tv shows and in movies?

copilots whole job is to make code look like it functions... arguably, that's entirely what these systems do.

the AI isn't doing fundamentals in programming anymore than it's putting on makeup to look like an actress.

if you go out and find a woman whose shaped like her, get a makeup artist and a costume designer and put together a simulacrum ... that's also illegal right?

anyway, it's pretty difficult to judge one as being ethically dubious and the other as hand wavy concern trolling.
