RE: Political Post - September 2021

There's the recent story of how Microsoft, now owner of Github, has created Codex using neural net algorithms developed by OpenAI

It's been trained on the open-sourced code of millions of projects on Github and is now being sold as commercially licensed software

The idea is that you type in what you want a piece of software to do and the neural net codes it for you

It raises questions of whether it's fair or right that Microsoft profit off of closed-source software derived from the combined work of millions of open-source coders
