[He cloned] another AI editor ... covered under the Apache open source license [and] slapped its own made-up closed license ... which Pan admitted was written by ChatGPT.

Who gives a shit, rigth?

The way he admitted it was hilarious too

Apache explicitly allows this. I don't get why OSI bros are endlessly surprised by this.

Yeah, pretty bad coverage of that by the article.

Apache isn't GPL, and it isn't an oversight that it allows closed source derivative works.
