- dgb23 5y agoIt would have to be in the same range of what is suggested, small patches and opt in. If snippets are a legal problem, then Copilot is problematic by default, since it suggests code that may or may not be sourced from free software.
- adriancr 5y agoEven free software snippets have clauses like GPL or attribution. Putting GPL code in proprietary codebase would cause a company massive headaches... So I agree copilot is problematic by default, liability to lawsuits for employers and forced open sourcing, liability to IP lawsuits as well which will end up on employees shoulders.
