While both are modified GPT3 models, Github Copilot is designed specifically to produce code while ChatGPT is a more general chat bot.

I could see them combining outputs, with ChatGPT generating a description/explanation while Copilot generates the code itself. ChatGPT can also parse a wider variety of inputs than Github Copilot. For example, you can ask ChatGPT "Can you find the error in this code?" while I'm pretty sure you can't ask Github Copilot that; but I haven't used Copilot since it left beta.
