Re:All public GitHub code was used in training Copilot by devetec on Thursday July 08, 2021 @11:09PM (#27780139)
Copilot isn't a retrieval model. It's a generative model. It learns the coding techniques, not retrieving snippets. Only 0.1% of code it generates is regurgitated, and even that is usually pretty common code.
