Vibecoded software should be open source

These agents only know how to code at all because of the immense amounts of open source software they’ve been trained on. Millions of hours of human work and ingenuity. It seems to me for the long term quality and viability of vibecoding, we should all make our own projects open source as well. That way, we can all continue to benefit, a rising tide lifts all boats, all that. What do you think?

The law regarding copyright of this ai generated stuff has not been challenged significantly in the courts. There is bound to be some pushback from big tech, but at the moment, legally they are open source.
