I mean ai has generated copyright headers verbatim in code I asked it to make. I had a tutorial open from the web and asked the AI to generate an example for me and it was the example from the tutorial verbatim as well...

This never happened to me and there is not a single such occurrence in my main project, across 150k LOC.

I would be surprised if a frontier model generated unexpected copyright headers during typical usage.

It was a frontier model from a few months ago. It hasn't done it recently. But it has happened. I imagine if there isn't a lot of training data for an idea it probably has a higher change of generating verbatim, so as time goes on, it should become less of a problem (at least with high quality models).

the people blindly submitting prs are not going to be using expensive frontier models, though.
