"We found that about 0.1% of the time, the suggestion may contain some snippets that are verbatim from the training set"

If it's spitting out verbatim code 0.1% of the time, surely it's spitting out copied code where only trivial things are different at a much higher rate.

Trivial things meaning swapped order where order isn't important, variable/function names, equivalent ops like +=1 vs ++, etc.

Surely it's laundering some GPL code, for example, and effectively removing the license in a way that sounds fishy.
