Comment on Barack Obama: “For elevator music, AI is going to work fine. Music like Bob Dylan or Stevie Wonder, that's different”

  Maybe you aren’t that good at writing code

    Maybe you aren’t that good at being a human, this comment being good evidence of that

  What language you program in and what kind of code you develop? Before Copilot were you before frequently searching answers on stackoverflow?

    Typescript, JavaScript, php, bash, scss/css… And isn’t every dev on SO or at least a search engine with some frequency?

    I don’t actually think the reason I like it is dependent on the language at all. The reason I like it is that it will often basically notice what I’m doing and save me from typing a repetitive 3-5 line block. Things like that and if I can’t remember a specific syntax, I’ve found that I can write a comment saying what the following code will do and boom, suddenly copilot writes a version of that code close to what I would’ve written.

    I mean you’re right that it can write stuff that doesn’t work, I just find that I can usually filter that out pretty quickly. The times I can’t, I’m a bit stuck anyway and it’s worth a shot to try their mysterious solution. But since I always treat its solutions with skepticism I haven’t been bitten yet.

    For me, copilot just takes the monotony out of the job. Instead of spending as much time writing boring stuff I get to focus on the more interesting parts

  Ignore them. At some point you gotta realize most people are losers trying to bring others down with them.

  Do what works for you :)

    I appreciate this comment. You inspire me to not only ignore more assholes, but maybe I’ll also be one myself less often :)
