I'll see if I can dig some up, but there have been similar examples to the image reproduction case that have come out from codepilot, all it took was using some more unique method names (i.e. ones that were very specific to a particular code base) and oh look there comes the "totally not copied, honest gov'nor" code.
Any company that is using copilot or similar is walking right in to a massive legal minefield. Any engineer that chooses to use Copilot without explicit approval from the company should seriously worry about what target they're putting on their back. You don't want to be putting yourself in a position where your employer can say "They did this without our approval" or worse "Despite explicitly having told them not to", should there end up being legal action. Someone is going to establish precedence one way or another at some point, don't let it be you.
