Depending on the outcome of the recent court cases related to AIs like Copilot and Stable Diffusion, this might not be of use at all.
If courts rule that training, distributing and using models without regard for the data author's consent is a fair use (which has a high chance of happening) then the license is is worthless.

It's really hard to argue that there's nothing "sufficiently transformative" about turning some source code for a web api into a machine learning model capable of presenting code suggestions for a wide variety of different types of problems. The actual issue isn't the training of the models, but the use of the resulting output: Just because training the models was fair use, doesn't mean that a case where you use some code the model regurgitates from its training data verbatim is.
