GitHub Uses Customer Interaction Data To Train Models

GitHub says it will begin next month using customer interaction data — including inputs, outputs, code snippets, repository context, chats and feedback — to train its Copilot models. The policy, revised as of April 24, applies to Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ users while Copilot Business, Enterprise, students and teachers are exempt; affected users can opt out via /settings/copilot/features.
