If thats what they are aiming at, I feel like their AI is actually suppose to be the pilot and the user the copilot

But... But I don't want it to. ๐ฎโ๐จ
I would like to someday use AI to remaster Stars!, Magic Carpet, and Judgment Rites. However, it won't be through co-pilot, because I fundamentally don't trust Microsoft.
In any case, I think genuine "hands off" development from an AI would be at least a decade off. Partially just for it to have the ability, but also for local hardware to support it. (I only use local AI, but a 100b like GLM is slow as heck on my gaming rig.)
My boss literally every day: wow look at this new ai tool I just found!
I can drink coffee pretty slow, but I don't think I can drink it that slow
I read โusers respond with mercyless trollingโ in the teaser, I have to open the article.
Good thing finishing your coffee is many sips. Because Copilot certainly doesn't feel fast. It often feels so slow you wonder whether waiting is worth it.
Technically true, but nobody said the code will be at all functional. I'm pretty sure I can finish about 800000 coffees before Copilot generates anything usable that is longer than 3 lines.
In my experience, which consists of using copilot for about ten minutes, literally every single suggestion is wrong, and if you're not careful it'll insert the shitty code and then you have to go back and find out why the code isn't working.
I'd rather have Lizzo shum on my face than use copilot
...but what am I going to do while it's compiling?
I do NOT want to have ditch Windows after this long. Microsoft. Please don't just carve a big, Copilot-pilot-shape hole out of Windows and weld it in there, expecting that that is somehow what your users want.
Of course, I do look forward to the brave new era of "Sam Altman will shut you down unless" being the new "run as administrator"
Make it de the shit I don't want to do, then we'll talk
yeah but then you have to fix everything in the code that they didn't get right.
like using it to automate a shell is fine; but trusting it blindly and treating it as the finishing product? you're delusional.
