At my last job there were several people using copilot very successfully, some even had the paid subscription, and clearly it was very useful to them. I tried it and found it not that good, barely saves me any time and sometimes actively wastes time, but that’s me. I won’t judge if others want to use it, as long as the code gets reviewed by humans, like during a pull request (and it was, in our case).
It’s just a tool. Just because I don’t find it very useful, I shouldn’t tell others not to use it.
One thing I don’t like though, the article says:
So … you won’t be able to deactivate it anymore? not cool, it I interpreted it correctly.
