This was in the context of a contribution to add (IIRC) ext4 filesystem support to OpenBSD. In this case, I was worried that the AI was just regurgitating code that was in its training corpus because how many ext4 implementations are there?
I think AI generated bugfixes and smaller features that don't duplicate fairly unique pieces of work in other projects are much less problematic from a copyright perspective at least.
