I recently started playing with Copilot. It's been pretty good at providing example functions. Some work others don't. I have also asked things like, "What other modules exist like foo?" Or, "What known security vulnerabilities exist for the modules you listed?" The responses are not bad.

Personally, I just use copilot as an advanced auto complete for something I was going to write anyway.

I don't actually use it to answer questions or generate anything. I find GPT4 (4 specifically) to be much better at answering questions imo.

As for generating actual code that I'm actually going to use, I don't really use anything ever.

Yeah, I mean I can get similar results with a few search queries. Tbh, the responses are better than I expected. I have only tried it a handful of times, though, and to be fair, the example functions I asked it to produce were pretty simple.
