So how exactly does this work?
Copilot is just an LLM trained on all GitHub code. Hence it gives you random stuff from some open source code bases.
Not random, the most used stuff It means this man is either very productive, or else he is constantly having to be told to do his job.
It is enough if his name appears just once. Modern language models take more than just the last few characters as context.
