> I would suggest to people using LLMs: you should be cautious about giving these companies data or relying on them. If you're building an AI startup, there's a very good chance they could decide to directly compete with you if your idea has traction. You're also at their mercy for API pricing etc.
LLM generated code is not copyrightable, so even if they do "steal" it - I don't think there's legal grounds to do anything about it.
It can't be stolen. You don't really own it.
You can try to lock it in a safe and hope no one ever gets a hold of it. You can lie and say you didn't use an LLM, but Anthropic and OpenAI et al probably have logs to disprove that.

But, if push comes to shove, you don't own it...
