Oh? Because Copilot might have trained on code it shouldn't have?

Assuming a ReactOS developer used Microsoft / Github Copilot to work on this codebase, then if Microsoft attempts to sue (themselves?) over their own Copilot tool injecting their own copyrighted code into a user's codebase, then that would be next-level irony right there.

I would chip in my $100 to fund whatever side of that legal battle is necessary just so I could see that case be argued in court.

"Assuming a ReactOS developer used Microsoft / Github Copilot to work on this codebase"

No need to assume. It's a certainty: https://github.com/reactos/reactos/pull/8516

"if Microsoft attempts to sue (themselves?) over their own Copilot tool injecting their own copyrighted code into a user's codebase"

Such an attempt can't make sense, given that the model used by ReactOS is in Microsoft's control and thus Microsoft alone is the one responsible for the model's behavior. They won't sue, thus much is clear.

> that would be next-level irony

More like end of Copilot.
