(1) There /are/ alternatives to github (a couple of them)
(2) My post was more targeting at github running advanced
   machine learning (GPT3) over all the free code hosted
   by it. To offer a service telling people how to code
   (talk funny feedback loop).

Point (2) was for me the "aaah, that's why Microsoft threw 7B on the table
to buy GH".
