> You know what would happen if all the people who handwrote and maintained those libraries revoked their code from the training datasets and forbid their use by the models?

The MCP servers combined with agentic search solved this possibility, just this year superseding RAG methods but all techniques have their place. I don't see much of a future for RAG though, given its computational intensity.

Long story short, training and fine tuning is no longer necessary for an LLM to understand the latest libraries, and therefore the "permission" to train would not even be something applicable to debate

it's a fast moving field, best not to have a strong opinion about anything
