Yes, you're right that I have not worked with Copilot. But, I'm not afraid of it and am currently trying to run Code Llama locally. Am definitely looking forward to learn more. Having said that, I have seen contradictory statements on how people are using these, or see themselves using these. One is the way you mentioned, completing line or perhaps writing complete functions given a prompt. However, people, including in this thread, have talked about working in new frameworks etc. which implies to me that they are probably using copilot to generate much of the code. I have had conversation with non-Engineers (read Product Manager types), who are using it to generate code and write applications. And, that is the situation I was referring to becoming a maintenance nightmare. The way I see it, it's just a tool. It can be great in the hands of an experienced programmer, but might become a deadly weapon in the hands of a novice.
