The are valid criticisms of Coplilot around copyright but I'm not using it to generate whole algorithms. It just knows your code and what you are trying to do.
- Kiro 4y agoExactly. Anyone who has worked with Copilot seriously knows that generating whole algorithms is not what you actually use it for. The things Copilot generate and autocomplete for me are unique and tailored to what I'm trying to do, completely based on the context of the code. Sure, you can bait it into reproducing stuff but why bother? Considering how convoluted it is to trick it you might just as well copypaste the algorithm straight from the repo. I almost find the discussion irrelevant because of how detached from reality it is.
