- Co-pilot will not replace software engineers, however ...
- I do think it will in some cases help them be more productive as some have expressed in this thread already.
- Once they open it up to fine-tuning on your own codebase I suspect it can be used to bring new engineers upto speed faster plus it get will get more trustworthy.
- I do have concerns about the legal aspect of selling software built with assistance if co-pilot but a lawyer could probably get me comfortable (or not!)
- I have personally found it useful for data science type tasks especially getting familiar with new libraries.
