What To Do About Copilot at Your Organization

GitHub Copilot Is Charting Unknown Territory

Copilot has been a great tool for making me a better developer.

Interesting article; I had my doubts on copilot, and here’s the confirmation. The AI is not on the production of code, but simply on the search - similar to Google, which is not “producing” the pages but instead just the research for a term.

From my experience, copilot it’s a super autocomplete tool, nothing else.
Some folks are concerned about what Copilot does with your data, but i don’t see this as more insecure than upload your company code to GitHub.

Off-topic regarding code review
An easy way to drop your production service:
<blockquote>
For example, an engineer that has proven day in and day out &gt;that they can produce high-quality code is scrutinized less &gt;during review than Junior engineer that we just hired.
</blockquote>
Even “proven” engineers can make mistakes.
Core reviews are not about trust and control. They are about code. And they are here to ensure that code is following all the guidelines and rules you have in the company. No matter who wrote this - junior, principal engineer or even CTO - the reviewer should be equally attentive

If anyone thinks an AI can replace an actual talented programmer, then the person needs to think again… Copilot has it use cases, but this article just made it clear that it is not just for me…
