  Interesting, so it might not be the specific token "gender" but rather blocked words ("man" or "woman") that appear in suggestions will suppress Copilot. And presumably another token that like "communist" might do the same...

    It suppresses output for bad words in both the prompt (your code) and the suggestions.

    The list (https://moyix.net/~moyix/copilot_slurs_rot13.txt https://moyix.net/~moyix/copilot_slurs_rot13.txt, rot13 encoded and linked from this tweet https://twitter.com/moyix/status/1433479083376140296 https://twitter.com/moyix/status/1433479083376140296) indeed contains the word "gender".

  They fixed Copilot returning verbatim snippet of Quake source code by just blacklisting a word! How can they still pretend Copilot is not just copyright washing other people's code? https://twitter.com/moyix/status/1433261377125326851 https://twitter.com/moyix/status/1433261377125326851
