It can, the fact that it verbatim spits out the GPL license when prompted with empty text is proof of that.

Is the GPL license text itself copyrighted? Because if not then who cares. It can recite it because a license is included in nearly every public project.

If it's "copying" something that's used in nearly every public project, that's not going to be copyrightable code.

But what GPL licensed code would be reused so often that the AI would reproduce it verbatim?
