Considering AI is just glorified autocomplete, this announcement is hardly a surprise.
Remember when Microsoft first bought it and not long after they decided that all code in the free repositories was fair game for autocomplete suggestions in Microsoft programs?
This is just the next logical step.
The next, next logical step will be stealing publicly accessible code from other repositories "by accident" if everyone leaves.
