Most of those "permissive" licenses require redistributors to redistribute copies of the license texts in derivative works.

But I bet these AI models aren't doing that. And it's a damn neat certainty that the vibe coders who use the AI model are not attaching a license disclosure containing every permissive licenses in GitHub. Even if their vibe coded app is arguably a derivative work.
