After the chardet bullshit, I'm seeing a rising trickle of use of the term "clean room re-implementation" referring to "AI" slop output from a prompt to rewrite some open-source code.
It ain't a clean room rewrite; that has a very specific meaning.
We need a new term for this kind of LLM-enabled license-washing. Suggestions?

"AI" LLM-based licensewashing of LGPL code ... by the project maintainer.
What the hell is wrong with these folks? Token go in, brain fall out.
Getting a program to "rewrite" your code doesn't nullify the copyright ownership or license terms of everything that went before it. You need a clean-room reimplementation from a bare spec for that, and LLMs *by definition* can't do that.
