The copyright example is naive at best. Any AI work that has been meaningfully modified by a human can be copyrighted. So if LLM generated code is used a the starting point and it is then modified in the testing and review phases you are good. Code that has not been touched by humans is very rare. |

Currently: human output is copyrighted so companies sign a transfer agreement with employees that anything they produce at work belongs to the employer. The employer now owns the copyright eventhough the employee, depending on jurisdiction, still owns the moral rights (which matter not much more than squat).
With AI: the company uses AI to produce code that isn't copyrighted. The company can take it like any public domain piece of software and incorporate it into their product. Their product is copyrighted by the company. There are even no moral rights that are personal (no need to mention "This product is based on work by Claude").
