If the candidate can get the work done, does it matter how?
Tools like this are going to become more and more ubiquitous, and I’m questioning myself whether it makes sense to avoid it almost entirely as I have been or to embrace using it to accomplish tasks.
Unfortunately (IMO) we are through the looking glass, as they say.
- joenot443 4y agoCopilot has a free trial, I think it’s worth anyone giving it a try just to see how it feels. I’m using it in my workflow for when I’m writing really repeatable test cases or boilerplate. For anything more complicated, very quickly the limitations will start to appear which has brought me comfort that it’ll be a long time before this is going to replace me entirely. I imagine it’ll be a bit similar to self driving cars, in that the technology behind the base 80% of cases is incredibly impressive, but the human element to solve the other 20% remains out of reach for longer than we hope.
