@heiseonlineenglish #Microsoft #Copilot is now quite unhelpfully submitting #AIslop PRs on #FreeBSD projects. I have no input into this and I do not believe it can be opted out of due to #GitHub terms of service. It is simply unacceptable, and there is the obvious IP risk as Microsoft and #OpenAI have indicated they do not respect other's IP rights. I do not host any projects of critical import on the GitHub service any more. #ai #GrandTheftAutoComplete
