GitHub Copilot is an AI assistant for programmers that works inside code editors such as Visual Studio Code. It suggests code as you type, explains existing code, hunts for bugs and can make larger changes on request. You can ask questions in Finnish too. Copilot clearly speeds up programming, but its suggestions must always be reviewed, as they can contain bugs or security holes. A limited free version is available, and students and open-source developers have been offered benefits.
Who it is for: Programmers and people learning to code.
👍 Pros
