Is there going to be an avalanche of code that is legally in the public domain, going forward?

Even if AI output isn't copyrightable, could you really argue a solid case if I taint random parts of the source code with my own isms? Which this is something I do, I don't care if the AI generated portions of my code base are copyrightable, perhaps my licensing is not valid for those portions, but throughout my code is going to be parts I hand crafted or patterned out because the AI just can't get it right. Those snippets are just proverbial land mines in waiting for a copyright infringer in waiting.
IMHO this strengthens my earlier comment/arguement

The more interesting question: will companies need to document human contribution to defend copyright claims? That might accidentally improve code review practices.

> When Either Music or Lyrics Are 100% AI-Generated
In cases where a work consists of both lyrics and music, and one of these is entirely AI-generated, you will not receive rights to that part of the work.
To obtain copyright in a musical work, you must contribute a creative, human input. Copyright arises automatically when a work is created and requires no form of registration. The right protects you and works created through your human creativity.
> Distinguishing Between AI-Assisted and AI-Generated
If you contribute human creative input that influences the final result, it is TONO’s position that artificial intelligence is used merely as a tool.
Be aware that you have no guarantee that an AI service will not generate the same or a very similar melody or lyric for others as well. If, in your creative process, you use or are inspired by AI-generated text or music, you are on safer ground the more you alter what the AI tool helped you with.
