The same applies to all realistic use-cases for copilot by the way. Whatever is produces is not copyrightable.

Correct. >The same applies to all realistic use-cases for copilot by the way. Whatever is produces is not copyrightable. That's a pretty bold statement to make. How do you know how people use copilot? Also IIRC Oracle vs Google essentially determined 3 lines of code can be copyrightable. So I think you statement fails on two points, you can't really predict how people use copilot and you cannot predict what a court would decide is copyrightable (this is much less straight forward than statement of facts).
