if you want an actual enterprise solution with in-customer-tenant/on-prem hosting, check out Codeium ( https://www.codeium.com/enterprise ) disclaimer: i'm from the Codeium team. but really, we will even ship you a physical box if that level of data security is important to you
Edit: Also, Notepad++ support would be awesome
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?
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.
Sadly, "simple license management" here just refers to "who in your organization has a license to use this tool", rather than "where did this code come from and what license is it under". This tool remains the equivalent of money laundering for violation of Open Source licenses (or software licenses in general).
The result looks like my own code and is utilizing the already existing parts of my application. The code it writes for me solves problems that you cannot find a standard solution for anywhere and is definitely not something that could be attributed.
How Copilot is trained is an issue but answering the question "where did this code come from and what license is it under" would be impossible.

I'm sure it's prob still very useful for people who care about the privacy tradeoff, but I've had more success with ChatGPT
Will Github indemnify users against potential copyright lawsuits related to the code it regurgitates?

I tried using the playground code completion to ask it to write a script for pyautocad that colors in a grid, it completed with a different library, pyautogui. Even after saying "import pyautocad" myself, the function it completed was pyautogui.

We are fans of ChatGPT and think that ChatGPT is pretty complementary to tools like Copilot and Codeium. ChatGPT is helpful for longer form exploratory questions from natural language while Codeium in its current form is great to accelerate your coding.

Are there plans to support the full Visual Studio IDE? Edit: Also, Notepad++ support would be awesome

To me this whole thing is like pandora's box and it will not in any way be put back into the box. In the long run isn't arguing about the code it generates and how it generates it mostly tilting at windmills? I've already met new / junior programmers that have used copilot and chatgpt to help them see how to approach certain problems or try to get better framing for what they couldn't quite get into the most accurate words to google.
I too would prefer these tools embody the ideal: no license violation, perfect citation of where the archetypes of the code came from. I've commented here today (amongst some great FOSS software engineers) to see if a genuine respectful conversation can be had about how just like torrents this one isn't going to be put back in the box no matter how many legal precedents attempt (or succeed) in cutting off heads of the hydra. It's utility seems like it will steamroll any attempts to stop or slow it down.
Am I wrong? Is it a fools errand to ask?
Is Copilot HIPAA compliant? It sends data to the cloud, so if you paste PHI…
Not an answer to your overall question of compliance, but to the specific point: > Copilot for Business does not retain any telemetry or Code Snippets Data. https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/configuring-github-copilo...
It's probably still sent to their servers.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> Only use Apache v2, MIT or BSD licensed Even if you use code under these license, you are still supposed to credit the authors by reproducing the license. So you need to know where it came from. Do you credit all the software the model was trained on?
> Do you credit all the software the model was trained on. That's a brilliant idea everyone can just copy and past the exact same attribution file and be done with it.
