Banned: The 1,170 words you can't use with GitHub Copilot

GitHub's Copilot comes with a coded list of 1,170 words to prevent the AI programming assistant from responding to input, or generating output, with offensive terms, while also keeping users safe from words like "Israel," "Palestine," "communist," "liberal," and "socialist," according to new research. Copilot was released as a …

[katrinab]

So does that mean that when I’m writing my collection of scripts to track vaccine rollouts worldwide, I can’t track how the governments of Israel and Palestine are getting on?

Two of my data sources are OWID and Johns Hopkins University, who publish the raw data for their own tracking stuff on GitHub.

[diodesign]

Usage

If the filter works, you'll find Copilot won't autocomplete your code if it involves the forbidden words, or if the source uses them.

Your IDE will still work, but you'll probably find that Copilot doesn't want to play ball. You might get away with it if the words are in data files the IDE/Copilot can't inspect.

As I understand it!

[katrinab]

Re: Usage

I have things like

if country == “Israel”

due to the fact that everyone reports things differently, and a lot of the aggregate sources don’t correctly deal with the fact that many people in Israel have had 3 doses, 25.3% of the population at the last count.

And Israel considers 2 doses to be a full vaccination, whereas Cuba considers 3 doses to be a full vaccination.

I get that some people might be offended by me listing Palestine as a country, but I list Scotland as a country, and if I follow the same criteria in the Middle East - anything with its own separate government health service gets included, then Palestine qualifies.

[doublelayer]

Re: Usage

You'll just have to type the names out yourself. It might not even have guessed at that point that you're going to be naming countries anyway, even if it does see the word country, because there are a lot of contexts in which country could appear where individual names don't. But if it happens to guess right, it still won't suggest it. I'm sure you'll be fine.

That's the sort of stuff that should be in an external configuration table rather than hard coded into the code.

[katrinab]

Re: Usage

I've separated the code into data acquisition stage and processing stage.

Because everyone has a different idea about how to report things, I have a separate script for each data source, and I convert it into a semi-consistent format to store in the database in order to move on to the next stage.

Then I have a table (or document collection, it's MongoDB) in the database with configuration stuff for the processing stage, and another table with the data in the form the webserver uses to display the data and graphs etc.

Re: Usage

(says me who hard-coded "*1.15" into a database 30-odd years ago. Waddaya mean VAT can change? Surely "VAT" *means* "15%")

My first "proper" encounter with a spreadsheet involved exactly this. Lady at work who had been on a three-day training course in how to work Excel caught out because she had *1.15 hard coded and couldn't work out how to change it without re-typing the whole thing. To be fair, it may actually have been what the course showed, as an example.

Me, who didn't actually have access to a spreadsheet and had only met them in books, and in passing while doing an engineering degree, tasked to help her out. No-one ever offered to send me on a training course. I was in that radio station to fix mixing desks, CD players and tape machines and I had to teach myself how to set up WfW3.11, NE2000 net cards and Novell.

So I showed her how to put the current rate into its own little cell, and reference it in a formula. I learned the $A$1 method (i.e. how to fix the reference) - just by looking around and trying the help system, she learned that you could drag-copy a formula and have it fill up your cells without destroying any data.

We've all done something like that. It's how we get out of the hole we've dug that sets us apart :-)

[Ken Moorhouse]

Re: without destroying any data.

One of the reasons that Excel is so dangerous in the hands of people that don't things through is that they will say "Ah, the VAT rate has changed, lemme change it." So they will, and mess up historical transactions. The art is to be able to have two lookup columns, one with the VAT rate, the other with the date effective from. That way is automatic. However...

VAT is a hell of a lot more complicated than that: forget about Excel, use a proper database to ensure that commodities with different VAT rates can be covered too, such as certain types of food, tampons, electricity supply, books with optical media, bank charges. Foreign transactions use other rules: is this to an EU customer? Do you have their native VAT number? Etc., Etc., Etc.

[imanidiot]

Re: without destroying any data.

And then pray to the gods that the way Excel interprets your date format is A: correct when implemented and B: Correct whenever the code is re-run afterwards. Because Excel and date formats are a match made in Hell by Lucifer himself.

[captain veg]

Re: 1.15

Lucky you! Putting it in a database was a much better idea than scattering it across dozens, maybe hundreds, of source files, which is what "we" had done in my first place of programming employment. (By "we" I mean that, as an incoming junior code monkey I didn't invent the practice, but saw nothing wrong with it.)

Still, what's interesting is that the VAT hike was presented at the time as temporary, to provide funds for transitory relief to the worst inequities of the poll tax. The poll tax was shortly ditched. VAT continued at 17.5% until* it was raised to 20.

* Before being democratically** replaced by George Osborne, Alistair Darling abolished VAT entirely as a stimulus measure following the 2007-8 credit crisis. Thereby giving the lie to the Brexiter myth that such a reduction was impossible while inside the union.

Sorry, but that was valid in John Postel's early years, when the internet was to 99% a place of nice people without bad intent (been there, enjoyed it, but that time is gone).

For at least 20-30 years, any input from the outside has to be considered tainted and potentially harmful by intent. There's no room anymore for sympathetic interpretations.

If you get something in which doesn't look like it should, NEVER try to "do what the sender may have meant". Log it, always. If you feel secure enough, return a meaningful error, ignore the specific input and continue. If in doubt, completely end processing after logging and reset your status.

You may accept known bugs from broken, but widely used implementations - but then never forget that this behavior is the reson those bugs were never fixed.

Good to know what words to include to prevent Copilot from using our code with a system they'd consider to be pirating if it started adding 'Microsoft Confidential' source files. That said, they openly host most of the leaked Windows source code without batting an eyelid these days anyway.

Passive aggressive is okay, right? ... right? ... right?

So it just won't answer if you say certain words? Sounds like family.

As long as it doesn't get so picky that it emulates a feature of McAfee, which deletes text files mentioning a certain software product and version.

[bombastic bob]

Re: Passive aggressive is okay, right? ... right? ... right?

from the article: The software also won't make suggestions if the user's code contains any of the stored slurs.

So that could be a back-door way of implementing an OFF switch, right? I'm assuming that would be in a context of a "you must use this" directive from a clueless boss.

I don't like "features" of this nature anyway. I type fast and don't need something correcting me while I type, nor GENERATING BAD CODE *FOR* me. I haven't used Copilot yet and so it may not be as IRRITATING as other "autocomplete" or so-called "intelligent" features of an IDE. Still, from the descriptions (and apparent history of generating INSECURE code according to the article) it's probably NOT something I'd use without coercion.

I'll just have to make sure to include a harmless (yet 'banned' word) in the header comments of each file. heh.

Too few words

There are not enough words on that list. I would suggest that all multi-letter words must be forbidden. This whole text I am writing should be disallowed^(*). Non of it makes any sense and will most probably infuriate quite a few readers. Safety first! That is the motto. There should be 26 letters allowed and that should be enough for all of you out there. More complexity cannot be good and will probably result in more bugs than is good for you and your project.

(*) except for the word "I", of course. No need to silence "I".

Any interest, though

Does anyone want this? I admit I don't like auto-completion basically at all (it annoys me when the editor tries to close my parentheses). I understand, though, why suggesting function names and showing parameters could be useful. Trying to predict the end to your statements, though, seems to me to be likely useless and definitely annoying. It's not as if you don't know how you're ending a line you've already started writing, so if it guesses right, at best you save a little bit of typing. It's also likely to guess wrong at least sometimes.

If anyone reading this wants such a feature, I'd like to know why.

Actually, "they" should know better than to anger programmers, many of whom are white-hat hackers, with a few grey hats as well. Github was (more or less) originally a place where people were FREE to put open source projects. Commercial-use support came afterwards, and I use it so it's a good thing.

HOWEVER, "angering the customer base" is a BAD thing. If I am right, and the people who originally *MADE* Github so popular are "Freedom Loving" hacker-types that *CRINGE* at even the *IDEA* of nanny-bots built into the service (and getting in the way of their FREEDOM), I think the results will be predictable.

Re: At least a software that will block Postel famous principle...

I think that's because you misunderstand him.

[Loyal Commenter]

Re: At least a software that will block Postel famous principle...

Indeed. What this really means, is that the output of your code should be well define and meet the specification (conservative in what you do), but should handle unexpected input with an appropriate response (be liberal in what you accept).

In practise, that means responding with an appropriate error, rather than assuming the input was correct and continuing anyway. In effect you shouldn't trust any data that you didn't create yourself (and because no software is ever 100% bug free*, you probably shouldn't trust your own data either until you've validated it).

For example, if you have a web service with an API endpoint that is expecting some well formed JSON, and the consumer posts a gif of a dancing monkey to it instead, it should return a 400 response, and try to deserialise the monkey and carry on like it was all fine. Otherwise, such handling of unexpected input could result in an unpredictable error later on in your process, and potentially result in an exploitable vulnerability, such as a buffer overflow, or SQL injection attack.

In other words, the Postel principle could be read as "expect other systems to pass all sorts of crap to you, and handle it appropriately." Appropriately, in almost all cases, being to reply with "unexpected input" or similar. After all, if the input is outside of what has been specified, then the behaviour that should be exhibited is also unspecified.

OK, I kind of understand the idea; they know some people are going to get horribly offended by some of the output of this tool, so they're getting ahead of the game by banning all words that could ever be considered offensive in any possible context. But just as banning "q sqrt" papers over a single instance without actually addressing the problem, banning a bunch of words devoid of any context doesn't address the issue that a code completion tool should be producing useful code rather than insulting people. If it's not capable of including "Israel" in a country list without also running the risk of calling the user a communist Israeli lesbian, the problem does not lie in allowing the word "Israel" to be used. The problem is that the tool is shit.
