A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Exactly my experience as well. Seeing CoPilot suggestions often feels like magic. Far from perfect, sure, but it's essentially a very context "aware" snippet generator. It's essentially code completion ++.
I have the feeling that people who laugh about this and downplay it either haven't worked with it and/or are simply stubborn and don't want to deal with new technology. Basically the same kind of people who, when IDEs with code completion came to be, laughed at it and proclaimed only vim and emacs users to be true programmers.
