I’m curious if enterprise customers would have license concerns about the code produced from using this.

Have any big companies set policies on employees using these kind of tools? Do they allow them?

One data point for you.

My company (big UK-based tech company) had an “all employees” sort of e-mail saying the use of Copilot, ChatGPT et al was not allowed for anything work-related or using company equipment due to unclear licensing model of the generated code.

I find many of these blanket rules silly, but in this case I find it is sensible to wait before polluting our products with this autogenerated code.

Fwiw Microsoft itself is betting on and suggesting devs use it for Microsoft production code.
