I tried it last month, and my impression the results were way worse than ChatGPT despite having full context of my project.
- nunodonato 3y agoits funny how most people who complain about copilot dont really know how to leverage it. I NEVER use comments. I should record a video on some tips and best practices
- reportgunner 3y agoYeah, why don't you record a video ? It's pretty simple.
- nunodonato 3y agoThe curious thing is that what looks simple for some might be less obvious for others. I used the old codex models a lot, so I'm aware of a few ways to optimize it's usage. People who learn it in a less optimal way(use comments to say what you want) really start off with the wrong foot
- reportgunner 3y agoI meant that recording a video is simple.
- xorcist 3y agoJust ask Copilot to record a video for you and enjoy the immense productivity gains.
- alexvitkov 3y agoI don't particularly care to learn, to be honest. I'm only willing to trust such tools with trivial problems, e.g. I'll ask ChatGPT about some generic snippet I'm sure it's seen in the training data and that would take me 5 mins to type out. If I have to do prompt engineering to get the model to spit out acceptable output for trivial shit, that's not a model I can trust even for said trivial shit.
- nunodonato 3y agothats the point, you dont.
