Then why not say it's not allowed to upload code you don't have copyright to? This would make sense, nobody would question it and it would generally also cover AI-generated code.

Mentioning vibe coding just upgraded it into a social and moral topic, while the sole fact that AI generated code is no issue at all, just that there is not a general concensus in the world who holds the copyright to that code.

It's kinda like blanked banning cooking, because you can't cook without a knife, and knife can be used as a weapon.

    It's more like banning cooking anything with mushrooms in it, because we haven't sorted out which mushrooms are poisonous or not. You could make it more accurate by instead banning cooking with anything poisonous, but of course then lots of people will keep cooking with their mushrooms, naively thinking they are not poisonous and therefore allowed.

    It's just a different analogy but the point is the same, why not ban poisonous ingredients? It implies poisonous mushrooms also, but doesn't criminalize cooking.
