Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I too want a taxi driver that doesn't know how to drive a car but can adjust the little TV content in the back.
Psh I mean all he has to do is step on the gas pedal and the car does all the work anyways right? I'm glad he doesn't have to think to much about so he has more time to get the thermostat just right.
I mean....yea? That's kind of the point. It's not driving, it's the copilot. You're the one driving, and it will get the thermostat right because you're busy operating the vehicle and want to keep your attention on the road. That seems useful to me.
If you already have an idea of the code you want to write and start typing it, Copilot can help auto complete so you can focus on actually solving whatever problem you're working on instead of searching for the correct syntax online. I understand shitting on AI is fun and there's plenty of valid criticisms to be made, but this is actually kind of useful.
“Ah but see, there is no agency, there is merely emergent behaviour! It is none of our choices that drive this, but merely the ideas some have had that drive this engine of our doom. Alas, we can do nothing about this outcome!”
I have no idea what you mean by this comment. All I'm saying is that an auto complete feature when writing code is useful, which is largely what this was designed for.
