> FOSS has always been about just writing code and putting it out into the world where others can do as they please with it.

Not true. Most FOSS licenses require attribution and many require derivatives to be released under the same license.

Sure, but I guess I'm not seeing the relevance here. Are we seeing some greater-than-normal wave of people redistributing FOSS code without attribution, or creating derivative works without adhering to the license terms? LLM training doesn't seem to be either of these things.

We are seeing megacorporations (SlopenAI, Antslopic, Microslop, etc.) distributing derivatives of open-source code (their LLMs) without attribution.

		Can you point to some specific examples of products shipped by the companies I assume you're referring to here that are in fact unattributed derivative works of GPL-licensed software? Or are you saying that you think anything generated by an LLM qualifies as a derivative work of anything included in its training data?
