Microsoft has indemnified customers who use its Copilot to generate code. If you use code generated by copilot and you're found to be in copyright violation, Microsoft will pay the fines for you.
"if a third party sues a commercial customer for copyright infringement for using Microsoft’s Copilots or the output they generate, we will defend the customer and pay the amount of any adverse judgments or settlements that result from the lawsuit, as long as the customer used the guardrails and content filters we have built into our products."

As this case shows, it takes over a decade to successfully litigate a pretty obvious copyright violation. So Microsoft feels quite confident in paying for you.
