AI summary

GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered code completion tool that integrates with various IDEs and platforms. It generates code suggestions based on context from the user's workspace and is trained on publicly available code. Copilot respects user privacy by processing personal data based on usage and does not use Copilot Business or Enterprise data for model training. While it aims to enhance developer productivity, it is not intended to replace developers and includes safeguards against insecure code. GitHub Copilot also includes features to help users identify relevant open source licenses and has measures to block offensive outputs.
