i think the salient point is that it is never reasonable to make that assumption when an AI tool is used. some of the tools now reportedly detect themselves when they are outright plagiarizing (and identifying the tool in a trailer would actually give some assurance in that regard), but if the tool fails or doesn't have the feature in the first place, then all bets are off. Literally No-one (TM) will use multiple code search engines to check whether the generated code doesn't contain sufficiently large fragments that are (near-)verbatim copies from incompatibly licensed code bases.
