GPT-3 is not free software [1]. Only the service is accessible to us,
mere mortals.
As for Copilot, one could even argue that it harvests [2] free software
at the costs of all of us.
As far as I am concerned, I'll put as much distance as I can between
myself and Copilot (or Github, for the same reasons).
I often asked myself how Github could have been worth $7 billion to
Microsoft. Now I begin to understand.
Cheers
