    LLMs are just one way to monetize the data. I would bet hand over fire that Microsoft used the data as soon as they bought GitHub.

      Yes but they specifically said “training data” which implies their use in LLMs. I agree they wanted user data, same as with linkedin, but I doubt they were thinking about “training data” in 2018.
