I think it's a great time to explain why this won't hit AI art such as Stable Diffusion, even if GitHub loses this case.
The crux of the lawsuit's argument is that the AI unlawfully outputs copyrighted material. This is evident in many tests with many people here and on Twitter even getting verbatim comments out of it.
AI art, in the other hand, is not capable of outputting the images from its training set, as it's not a collage-maker, but an artificial brain with a paintbrush and virtual hand.
