Hi Luke! Love watching your video. Thank you for sharing! Keep up!

[yorailevi]

I really like copilot, it's really good the the broad strokes and helping me see different ways i hadn't thought of.

[jcoggon]

Thanks for confirming in the logs that GitHub Co-Pilot sometimes uses GPT 3.5 Turbo, was pulling my hair out not understanding that sometimes I would have to take my code to ChatGPT to fix the error and then continue again in Co-Pilot 🤘

Tabnine is still a great copilot for a free AI tool, it’s not as extensive, but for an intermediate coder that just wants to speed up their workflow, it is a great free option.

Which software do you use to record your screen. Its very cool the way it zoom to the point. is it camtasia?

[alperenbaytimur]

Thanks for making me feel bad about my lacking programming skills

[cucciolo]

Lol… I thought that programmers were totally geeks and nerds, but I think you are an exception. Really nice video, and exactly, VSC is super helpful. But I hate that for now, the Copilot can’t chat with my whole code.

Hi, i am having 10 years of experience as a Quality analyst in banking, can you please help me to suggest if self-study or doing a master's is a good option for data science

[Andrew-hzig]

Mmm, increased churn could be interpreted very differently: on larger mature products, about 70+% of all online controlled experiments have neutral or negative impact, so it might actually indicate faster implementation/removal by engineering teams, and be a good thing...

[patlecat]

So you uploaded a working code of your own to fix the Copilots errors? Genius LOL

Could the conclusion at 1:54 not also be, that because they have access to the copilot, they have the time to go back and fix stuff, that prevously would have remained bad.

[theanonymoustechie]

This is crazy because now we're going to have more developers who are better, faster, but yet understand less. What is this world

[jks]

I think it’s ridiculous that this is considered making you “lower end” in development.

And “doing it yourself” is considered being “better at programming”.

That’s like saying “I walk to work so my commute is more legitimate than your drive.”

It’s just intentional self-sabotage in the name of outdated pride or something.

It’s like people being proud that they didn’t have to google a historical date.

How about be proud of delivering a useful product instead?

[_sky_]

I am using Copilot becasue I belive not using it in 2-4 years will make you uncompetitive in general IT market (as developer)

[DIDI]

amazon code whisperer is free. and works similar. just saying coz you said you don't like to pay for tools

[CodeBeep]

Code replacement is incorrect - lines are duplicated, imports are duplicated. The context of the entire project is not available. So so.

[soloqVenu]

So, this is only for below average coders? 😢

[ramielkady]

I thought low quality, below average developers use IDEs like VS code, I mean real hard core true seniors use notepad otherwise they are subpar inferior low quality wanna be - but will never be - true devs. Did I kill it ?

[qamstel]

But if were a junior developer/data analyst, what insensitive would you see learning what all those lines of code are doing instead of relying on GPT to spit out the code for you? It seems like a slippery slope of forgetting how to learn things and losing the most important quality of a good programmer, patience and hard work.

Using "AI" to do something you could have done since 1985 with excel with just a few clicks on a button seems pretty useless to be brutally honest. In addition, feeding company data is a big NO if you are working in specific industries such as cyber security where publicly sharing data to the wrong people could have fatal consequences.
