    I stopped reading when they claimed using copilot introduced bugs, as though it would be software’s fault if you use it wrong.

    I find copilot to be quite helpful. Saves me a lot of typing and looking up syntax I forgot.

      It allows me to think one abstract layer higher. Copilot will take care of the for loop to find whatever, while I get to keep the context in mind of why I need it.

    Only the bad ones. There’s about 6 at my job that refuse or can’t understand how and they’re all failing metric. I know because I keep getting their tasks. Project leaders are watching people.
