I think saying all off Github source should now be GPL is going a little far but I do feel very strongly that the people who contributed to the "intelligence" in copilot (most likely everyone who has committed to a public GH repo) should have access to the training dataset and the underlying model and its weights - obviously there is a lot more involved in actually making copilot from this but it would allow other people to start to compete fairly

Of course I don't think there will be any legal route to anything of this kind but I think there is a strong moral case that obviously MS will ignore completely...
