We submit copilot assisted code all the time. Like every day. I'm not even sure how you'd identify ours. Looks almost exactly the same. Just less work.

copilot assisted code

The article isn't really about autocompleted code, nobody's coming at you for telling the slop machine to convert a DTO to an html form using reactjs, it's more about prominent CEO claims about their codebases being purely AI generated at rates up to 30% and how swengs might be obsolete by next tuesday after dinner.

The people who own the walls are *vexed*

Don't worry, if you apply yourself really hard one day you might become an actual engineer. Keep trying.
