Co-pilot isn't using the same model. They're using a model that's been trained on a LOT of open-source code.
Alot of "open" source code ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
is the model open source?
Not that I'm aware of. Even if the input is public data, the actual training scripts and resulting model tend to be closed-source. Meta's one of the only major companies I know of to release their models under a somewhat-open-source license.
