DeVault: GitHub Copilot and open source laundering

The problem with your approach is that INTENT MATTERS.

If your licence makes it clear that you consider putting your source into a ML algorithm creates a derivative work, then the Judge is likely to agree with you.

If your licence doesn't make it clear, then the Judge will almost certainly side against you on the basis that "copyright law is ambiguous". Fair enough. But if your licence does make it clear, the Judge needs a reason to say "your licence is invalid" (and he'd rather not).
