It's just basically a search engine, but the context is the rest of your code.
Writing software just auto-completing from CoPilot would be like trying to write a whole novel with the auto-predictive text on your phone. You could do it, but the results would be non-nonsensical and full of semantic errors. I don't think there's any real 'provenance' at play in either case.
This guy is a literal who, who is really over estimating the value of his open source contributions over a general development tool that can reduce the cognitive load of working in some hairy code bases.
I don't think it's CoPilot that's 'erasing' his, Racket, community.
