- BonoboIO 3y agoWell it’s kind of misleading, because GitHub has kind of a following for their product named Copilot. I think renaming it would benefit everyone.
- turnsout 3y agoMicrosoft also has an AI feature called Copilot. I think at this point the name has become a generic term for AI assistance.

I think at this point the name has become a generic term for AI assistance. Github is Microsoft, and, yes, Microsoft has expanded their Copilot branding for end-user-facing AI assistance beyond just the Github coding tool, but that doesn't make it generic.
