Lots of questions:

  - the generated code by AI belongs to me or GitHub?
  - under what license the generated code falls under?
  - if generated code becomes the reason for infringment, who gets the blame or legal action?
  - how can anyone prove the code was actually generated by Copilot and not the project owner?
  - if a project member does not agree with the usage of Copilot, what should we do as a team?
  - can Copilot copy code from other projects and use that excerpt code?
    - if yes, *WHY* ?!
    - who is going to deal with legalese for something he or she was not responsible in the first place?
    - what about conflicts of interest?
  - can GitHub guarantee that Copilot won't use proprietary code excerpts in FOSS-ed projects that could lead to new "Google vs Oracle" API cases?
