For projects, it's also a licensing issue. You don't own the copyright on AI generated code, no one does, so it can't be licensed.

This isn't an issue of "nobody can use this" but an "everyone can use this", i.e. projects can use AI generated code just fine and they own the copyright to any modifications they do to it.

Think of it like random noise in an image editor: you do own the random pixels since they're generated by the computer, but you can still use them as part of making your art - you do not lose copyright to your art because you used a random noise filter.

Only if the generated text has no inherited copyright from the source data.

Which it might. And needs to be judged on a case-by-case basis, under current copyright law.

That is only true for trivial projects that require no human creativity. For such simple projects not having copyright for it is not a big deal.
