I have a great idea for a program! I should describe it in agonizing detail to an AI owned by some company so it will spit out working source code. Nothing can go wrong with my plan!
If you make it open source they can't steal your idea
I mean, they can still steal your idea, fork it, repackage it and charge for it while refusing to upstream their development. But now it's a licensing discussion and not a personal attack.
Apple and Google have stolen plenty of ideas. They don't care if it's closed or open.
If they can't prevent others from using it, seems fine to me.
This is a flawless plan, especially since they pinky swore that they wouldn't keep around the information you put into the black box AI. So we're all safe!
If AI will stop people from telling me their "amazing" app ideas when they find out I'm a programmer then I'm all for it.
