Dude AI companies do not give a fuck about the law. It’s hard to prove a specific piece of data was used to train a model so they put everything in they can. There’s literally a lawsuit about this, where Microsoft and others claim using code on GitHub to train is fair use.
As far as I can tell this lawsuit is about copyright infringement of open source code, but as we where talking about an open source project leaving GitHub because of this, that’s what’s relevant.
I myself would not be surprised if they could not withstand the urge to put more high quality code from enterprise users into their training data, but as they are not suing and we don’t know their code, that’s speculation.
So your first two paragraphs admit that you aren’t refuting anything the other guy said. He was clearly talking about enterprise contacts, not the free tier of GitHub which is completely different.
It’s insane how aggressive you guys are being about this despite having zero evidence to back you up other than “corporations lie”, as if other lying corporations don’t have their own small army of lawyers writing these contracts. Those guys will instantly file a lawsuit the moment they suspect their company’s data is getting eaten by copilot.
It would be an incredibly stupid move by Microsoft to do that, especially because it would put all their other contracts with that company at risk (eg office 365, exchange, etc)
