I’m not going to go fishing around for the case you and technician are referring to, but if it’s anything like OP’s links then it doesn’t say what you’re claiming it says and/or isn’t nearly as broad and all encompassing as you describe. I don’t live in a nation ruled by the blog/tabloid “synthtopia”.
When an AI technology determines the expressive elements of its output, the generated material is not the product of human authorship.[31]
As a result, that material is not protected by copyright and must be disclaimed in a registration application.[32]
You’re the second person I’ve replied to about that, but they give only two examples of image generation which were denied for claiming to contain absolutely no human authorship which can be considered subjective by the courts as digital camera output is copyrightable based on who presses the button, the office admits they are waiting for public input (the legislative body) on the matter, and also since this is the copyright office it has no bearing on other types of established property such as license or patent law.
Until the laws clarify I say treat AI code as radioactive.

No they don’t - they’ve published their current rules and state that those rules are their interpretation and those rules will stand until and unless further rulings or legislation comes out to change the situation. You know, how laws work?
You already responded to it?

I mean sure you can ignore the court ruling, but here’s the copyright office’s guidance (which they also provided later in an edit) and it clarifies that AI generated work is not eligible for copyright

That person was also me, funnily enough!
Buddy, patents are public domain. That’s the whole point of a patent.
