It depends, it happened for NN to spit out exact strings it had as input. I assume if the input for some particular stuff is low it will just spit it out, but if I am wrong and OpenAI, Microsoft or others have a mathematical proof that this will never happen I want to see it.
- speedgoose 4y agoYes we have seen a case of an old common and popular square root function that are returned verbatim by GitHub Copilot. Perhaps a case of overfitting since the code was present many many times in the training dataset, and even has a Wikipedia page. I haven’t seen more obvious examples since GitHub implemented a feature to prevent this from happening. I probably miss some tweets, but I assume it’s rare.

- speedgoose 4y agoTrue. I think the comments and the coding style were from famous implementation from the 90s, which could be a copyright issue. The algorithm itself can by copied.
