> Copilot is encouraging us to block users unnecessarily, by suggesting obviously flawed code, which is wrong on every level: wrong ethically, wrong legally, and the wrong way to build software.
I share many of the same worries as the author. This is why I think teams need to build and run their own Copilot-like systems, so that they can guide the suggestions they receive. Each developer and team has their own way of building software, and they need to be able to shape and evolve the suggestions they receive to fit their definition of the "right" way: https://blog.continue.dev/its-time-to-collect-data-on-how-yo...
I've been playing around with it for the last couple days on my Windows machine, using it for local tab-autocomplete in VS Code, and it's been just as good as it is on my Mac
What do you use for tab-autocomplete in VS Code? I've been trying to find something that can replace copilot, just because it sounds fun. Everyhing I've found seems more aimed at entering a prompt and having it refactor code, not completing as you write with no other input.
