AI coding assistant has transformed development speed and supports learning new languages
Any technology comes with two things, or rather anything in this world has both sides, good and bad. LLMs also have the same thing. The bad part is for a person who is 100% dependent on AI because they won't be able to learn more if they are 100% dependent on that. The main thing is that there has to be restraint from our side. I won't say it is from the tool side, but from our side, we need to learn and we need to work on it. We need to review the code. That is one thing that we need to do from our end. From a technology perspective, it is designed to help us out, and it is totally on our side of thinking about how exactly we are going to use that. There is not any area for improvement from the tool side, but it is from the users altogether. Users should not be 100% reliant on AI or any LLMs. They need to work on it and they need to review the code.

Business Software Developer at a tech services company
This is a RAD tool to build business apps, tables, and forms.
It needs a desktop version for developers with license type CE. I would like to have the possibility to have a CE that lets me migrate from SQL Server Express, Access, and OpenOffice Base and keep all UI front-end development in just one system. In short, the 6.7 was good enough. The question is: Will there always be a desktop version CE that will let me work with, for example, five users for free, and then start to pay from user six, or in my case, three users? Right now, I do not see WaveMaker in this field, and there are others points to ask for from a desktop.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Initially, OpenAI is free, but you'll need to pay for it later."
"The most valuable skill and characteristic of GitHub CoPilot is that you can find any information in seconds."
"When I write code, I feel like I have someone sitting with me to help me. Wherever I'm stuck, I just ask a question, and it provides guidance that I can use."
"One metric I have noticed since adopting GitHub CoPilot is that once developers start using it, they are completing coding tasks 55% faster, which I consider a great achievement worth sharing."
"The platform's most valuable feature is detecting and suggesting variables based on the existing file context."
"Efficiencies with GitHub CoPilot have improved by 30%, which means a quicker go-to market and a simplified way of documenting technical designs."
"GitHub CoPilot has good stability and performance."
"The initial setup of the product is easy."
"It is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool to build business apps that lets you work with many diverse data stores and build tables and forms easily."
 

Cons

"There's room for improvement to ensure that suggestions align more precisely with the context of what I'm seeking, minimizing instances of unrelated or inaccurate code suggestions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Questions from the Community

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for GitHub CoPilot?
For now, I think it is okay. It is not that expensive. The kind of use that I am having with a $20-30 license, I think it is really of really good help.
What needs improvement with GitHub CoPilot?
To improve GitHub CoPilot, I believe the context window could be larger for better understanding of the current file, as it sometimes struggles with very deep structural relationships across hundre...
