Hey all, |

I just found out while I was on vacation about Github's copilot feature. |

|

Basically, it appears to be a machine learning feature that trains |
6 |
itself on all publically available code on github and provides |
7 |
code suggestions to any public or private repository. |

There appears to be a lot of controversy around it in foss groups, so I |
12 |
thought it might be worth bringing up here. I added the council and |
13 |
trustees because I thought it might be worth bringing to their attention |
14 |
as well. In particular, I see concerns about gpl projects being on github |
15 |
if they can't opt out of this. |

Thoughts? |
