@glyph not at all, it really is exactly what I would have written if I’d spent the extra time on it
My current take on provenance is that if it doesn’t spit out eg a carbon copy of John Carmack’s fast inverse square root I’m not personally morally bothered by it
And legally, most LLM vendors have some kind of copyright indemnity these days - here’s Anthropic’s: https://www.anthropic.com/news/expanded-legal-protections-api-improvements
@simon this only covers you for the legal costs of defending the copyright lawsuit and potential damages though, which is not super relevant for something that goes up on PyPI. It doesn’t cover the reputation damage or the engineering effort required for your users to rip out the dependency, if they’re not paying you for it. It would make me feel pretty comfortable shipping something in a product but open sourcing it seems riskier.
