Comment on GitHub hits CTRL-Z, decides it will train its AI with user data after all

otter@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

Date

As of April 24 you’ll be feeding the Octocat unless you opt out

Scope

The code locker’s revised policy applies to Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ customers, as of April 24. Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise users are exempt thanks to the terms of their contracts. Students and teachers who access Copilot will also be spared.

To opt out:

Those affected have the option to opt out in accordance with “established industry practices” – meaning according to US norms as opposed to European norms where opt-in is commonly required. To opt out, GitHub users should visit [github.com/settings/copilot/features] and disable “Allow GitHub to use my data for AI model training” under the Privacy heading.
