That's not their stated position, obviously it's hard to verify but from there official stance:

"GitHub Copilot is powered by OpenAI Codex, a new AI system created by OpenAI. It has been trained on a selection of English language and source code from publicly available sources, including code in public repositories on GitHub."

A repository being public does not mean that it's open source.
