The Full Story
Customers of GitHub's free tier are about to become unwitting AI training data. The company's announcement revealed that data from free, Pro, and Pro+ users will be used to train Microsoft's AI models, much to the dismay of those who thought their data was safe. This move raises questions about user consent, data protection, and the ethics of exploiting users for AI development.
