Generated code is no different than generated imagery. They were both trained off stolen content and are both in a legally grey area. Both are equally immoral.

But just go with your Everybody else is doing it argument

    Its not "everyone else is doing it" as an argument

    Its reality that a massive fuck tonne of devs are using it totally unaware its AI generated

    Its just a built in, enabled by default, opt out, feature in all the mainstream IDEs now and for the most popular ones, it doesnt even tell you upfront its AI

    So a huge amount of devs are 100% unaware of the fact that a huge % of their code that they just tab auto-completed with was AI generated code. Everytime they hit the tab button to accept an inline suggestion, that was AI.

    They just dont even know this, they use it totally unaware.

    See my other comment here for further info on what I mean, so I dont have to repeat myself.
