    Yeah, but the comparison translates poorly to software, since there is no way to “take” a whole ship, only to copy it. Whether you copy it directly or rewrite it, the material is the same, because you have the same information in the end. It would be closer to take the ship apart and rebuild it exactly the same using the same planks. Now, if you ask the AI to re-write a software in a different language, or using different patterns, that would be something else. If it writes the open-source project exactly the same, byte by byte without the license, then it’s simply breaking the terms.
