AI can rewrite open source code—but can it rewrite the license, too?
Ars Technica focuses on rewrite and license, with context pulled from source reporting instead of recycled feed copy. Cross-checked against Bellingcat.

What happened: Is it clean “reverse engineering” or just an LLM-filtered “derivative work”?
Cross-source context: Bellingcat highlights flight tracking data is an important tool in open source research, but with 100,000 daily flights , it can be difficult to contextualise what a particular...
What to watch next: movement around rewrite, license.

For those are tired of writing the same ML boilerplate every single time or to beginners who don't have coding experience. MLForge is an app that lets you visually craft a machine learning pipeline. You build your pipeline like a node graph across three tabs: Data Prep - drag in a dataset (MNIST
Built an AI system to manage my day. Noticed the AI drops balls the same way I do: forgets instructions from earlier in the conversation, rushes to output, skips boring steps. Research confirms it: - "Lost in the Middle" (Stanford 2023): 30%+ performance drop for mid-context instructions - 65% of en
Flight tracking data is an important tool in open source research, but with 100,000 daily flights, it can be difficult to contextualise what a particular aircraft’s movements indicate. Bellingcat has developed a tool called Turnstone to make it easier to visualise historical trends in flight data a

LLMs forget instructions the same way ADHD brains do. I built scaffolding for both. Research + open source.
