At least from my perspective as a web developer, I just never found it all that useful. When I finally got an invite to it a few months ago, I used it for a bit but it always just felt like more of a toy than a real tool. If you're someone that's learning to code then Copilot looks like this fantastical tool that can write all your code for you, and that's why I think it gets so much attention. But from my perspective, Copilot just completely breaks down inside of a large established codebase. It's great if you're just standing up an app for the first time but once you lay down standards, common services and components, etc, Copilot just starts getting in your way.
I was excited when it first came out but I'm just over it now.
