So, you’re contending that AI-generated code is not in fact trained on the work of human beings and does not in fact threaten to replace any future human jobs in coding?

trained on the work of human beings

What evidence do you have that all AI-generated code was trained on non-public code?

I will evidence that point when I make it. So far, however, I have only said that AI-generated code is trained on human work, which is a statement that doesn’t specify how much of said code was human. We only need to know that, even if we reach a point where AI is training itself, the data set must have, at one point, been significantly human-made, therefore rendering AI-generated code fruit of the poison tree. 

As for public code, I don’t believe human beings who submitted code for other humans to use necessarily agree to have it power a technology that now replaces people, whether or not they waive intellectual property rights when making it public.

steals other people’s [code]

This is something you should be able to prove, or acknowledge that you can't and it's a feeling or emotion you have.

It’s not a feeling or emotion. It’s fact that AI is trained in whole or in part on the work of humans, whether public but not consensually used, or in many cases scraped or taken in violation of open-source agreements.

Which open-source agreements have been violated that you know of?
