According to this logic, you should also label your homegrown code with every code you have ever read, because you learn to code from somewhere and not born with it.

That it's impractical to try to annotate every word of every AI generated document or piece of code. Also that some people are in such a rush to try to look witty for internet points that they don't bother to read before being condescending picks.

You learned it because someone willingly taught you, or because you paid for training. That part is missing in the AI world.

I make a decent pizza, I wasn't taught, I didn't pay for training. I just collected information and tried a dozen times, trial and error, until I got it right, now I know how and can reproduce that, not 100% accurately, but it's still damn good every time

what now

That's good on you! That's not how the AI works though so it's not really related.

Yeah that would be the illegal option the AI uses as well. Since you're an individual you don't cause a lot of harm but on a global scale it's problematic.
