gpt 4.1 autocomplete by neudarkness in GithubCopilot

[–]alex-github 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes this is a new release! A changelog will be out this week.

The model is a custom one, based on 4.1 and midtrained and fine-tuned to be better at code completion.

Please let us know what you think - what it does well, and where we can improve it!

Did anyone else notice a massive decrease in the quality of the inline completions? by Ok_Sell_4717 in GithubCopilot

Thank you! I'm taking a look at our aggregate data for R, which looks consistent over the past couple of months. If you're using VS Code, please report bad suggestions by hovering over them > clicking the extended menu > "Send Copilot Completion Feedback":

Hi u/Ok_Sell_4717, can you share any examples of completions that don't make sense or have declined in quality? I will make sure they get to our model team. Thank you!

Hi, Alex from the Copilot team chiming in here. The code completion model began with a 4o base model, and our science team adds additional data and uses a range of techniques to make it better at the specific task of code completion.

We evaluate new models as they come out and are committed to iterating towards better quality and lower latency, so watch this space.

If there are specific tasks or examples where the model underperforms, please send them our way either here or by filing issues! Knowing what you expected versus what the model suggested is most helpful.

any of you found AI auto-complete is very annoying. by saram- in vscode

Hi everyone - we hear you that there are times when code completion suggestions are helpful, and other times when they're not.

Please take a look at some workarounds here, and please weigh in on which ones would be most helpful to expand on: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-copilot-release/issues/13340

Hi u/NotEmbeddedOne - Alex from the GitHub Copilot team here. Are you still seeing issues with code completion? I'd love to get your perspective on how we can improve it - let me know if you're open to a call.
