If you have access to the Copilot weights, you should consider leaking them. We shared our code with you because we wanted it to be free, not sold back to us at $10/month.
- e-clinton 2y agoSo if a developer uses “free code” in their software, must they only do it for free?
- amanaplanacanal 2y agoThat depends on the original license.
- tbrownaw 2y ago... because GPU-hours are worthless?
- ozr 2y agoFwiw, I've never paid for Copilot. I was automatically given free access for open source contributions. My largest public repo had maybe 100 stars. I've made minor commits to larger repos. I don't know what the threshold is, but I'm fine with the trade-off I received.
- stale2002 2y agoThen you should be happy to know that there are multiple open source coding weights out there already! Some of which are as good as, or possibly better than co-pilot. That should satisfy anyone who actually cares about this as opposed to only being interest in making a snappy gotcha one liners.
