I've been trying, on and off, copilot.el. I'm kind of 50/50 on it most of the time. Sometimes it seems to really understand the code around what I'm working on and does a good job of helping complete the thing I'm about to type; other times it makes wild predictions that just annoy me and get in the way.
It's interesting to experiment with though.
But, just now, I saw something new1. I'd just started a fresh file and run funhead. That means that what had been typed into my buffer was:
##############################################################################
# _
and my cursor was sat where you see the _ above. Then Copilot made a suggestion:
Like, sure, we all know that this is what can happen, but damn. Still, of all the companies involved with or adjacent to AI, I guess they're the ones to care the least.
To me, I know others have seen this sort of thing before. ↩
