I’m using Github Copilot every day just fine. It’s great for fleshing out boilerplate and other tedious things where I’d rather spend the time working out the logic instead of syntax. If you actually know how to program and don’t treat it as if it can do it all for you, it’s actually a pretty great time saver. An autocomplete on steroids basically. It integrates right into my IDE and actually types out code WITH me at the same time, like someone is sitting right beside you on a second keyboard.
