So Copilot is its own topic of discussion, but in so far as it and this sentiment are relevant to this thread, I think there's a serious issue here and one particularly relevant to that of Copilot in general. At some point, I think we have to protect the ability for a human to understand and reason about a technology or a piece of software. Thus the need for better and more economic languages etc. To sweep the the difficulties of reasoning about a language under the rug of a non-human AI tool that itself isn't providing human readable information on the software or language in question seems to be, quite frankly, an egregious shortcut for short-term gains. Whatever gains and utility there are in Copilot, bugs creeping in without the developer even understanding them is exactly what many would fear would happen with it. More broadly though, training the developer to be agnostic or ignorant of the issues with the very technology they're using because Copilot is "taking care of it" surely has some negative knock-on effects in terms of developers being able to manage and improve their tech-stacks.
