Programmer Humor

I turned on copilot in VSCode for the first time this week. The results so far have been less than stellar. It's batting about .100 in terms of completing code the way I intended. Now, people tell me it needs to learn your ways, so I'm going to give it a chance. But one thing it has done is replaced the normal auto-completion which showed you what sort of arguments a function takes with something that is sometimes dead wrong. Like the code will not even compile with the suggested args.

It also has a knack for making me forget what I was trying to do. It will show me something like the left side picture with a nice rail stretching off into the distance when I had intended it to turn, and then I can't remember whether I wanted to go left or right? I guess it's just something you need to adjust to. Like you need to have a thought fairly firmly in your mind before you begin typing so that you can react to the AI code in a reasonable way? It may occasionally be better than what you have it mind, but you need to keep the original idea in your head for comparison purposes. I'm not good at that yet.
