At the end of the day, all decisions related to AI generated content, no matter if its code, art, text or something else, will favor big corporations.
If I take a dataset of public available images of Disney characters, which are obviously copyrighted, and train a model to generate new characters, they will sue me until they find a judge that rules I infringed their copyright just by using their copyrighted work, even if the result does not have any similarity with the copyrighted work.
But if a big corporation take a copyrighted public dataset to train a model, and this model start to regurgitate exactly copies of the copyrighted work, which apparently is the case of Github Co-pilot, in the case of a lawsuit, the big corporation will spend money until they find a judge that rules their use of the copyrighted work as fair use.
So, at the end, any decision will benefit big corporations.
The real question is if people will make big corporations fight for their victory or if people will let them win easily.
