When we first started seeing Github CoPilot/ChatGPT there was a lot of concern from the legal standpoint of IP ownership and copyright issues.
When you are evaluating a company for acquisition, what happens when you learn that the programmers have been using AI-generation? Is it pencils down? Change the valuation? Nothing?
AI may be a different can of worms, and I'd expect them to usher in a copyright lawyer before putting down the pencil. If the product is everything they signed up for though, I don't see why they wouldn't seal the deal. The only exceptions I can imagine are in the defense, aerospace and medical industries.
