This is the bit that gives me pause:

> In certain markets, we use conversation data to train the generative AI models in Copilot, unless you choose to opt-out of such training.

"Build me a SaaS platform exactly like ____"

If agents become as good at long running tasks as we're told they will do by giving Microsoft access to your codebase and inner business processes to give to anyone that wants to the ability to clone your business.

That might end up being inevitable but I see no reason to accelerate that.

At least they are clear about it: It's an editor for open-source AI code. It's not intended to be used for maintaining internal software projects.

The most reasonable reading of that description is that VSCode itself is open source, not that it is only intended for editing open source software. Furthermore, nothing in the license suggests that. If that was their intent they were very much not clear about communicating it.
