If you want an lol - Microsoft have implemented Copilot on its own GitHub repos and it’s a clusterfuck, you can see MS engineers publicly begging Copilot to work. https://www.reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/comments/1krttqo/my_new_hobby_watching_ai_slowly_drive_microsoft/

This is real customer code btw that Copilot is messing up with, big self own by Microsoft playing out. Microsoft Incident Response are going to book so much revenue from all the security vulns Microsoft Copilot introduces to Microsoft customers.

@GossiTheDog adding direct text and links:"The agent has recently been deployed to open PRs on the .NET runtime repo and it’s…not great. It’s not my best trait, but I can't help enjoying some good schadenfreude. Here are some examples: - https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/115762- https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/115743- https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/115733- https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/115732I actually feel bad for the employees being assigned to review these PRs. But, if this is the future of our field, I think I want off the ride."

@timjclevenger @GossiTheDog They're talking to it like it's a person and as if it has thought-out motivations and logic for doing what it does?!

@Gurre @timjclevenger @GossiTheDog That's the interface as it's designed, not that there's any redemption to be found in it.Working with CoPilot is like having a pair programmer who is wildly insane, didn't read the project documents and may or may not be a spy.The syntax is usually solid, it's the logic and design that's absolutely bonkers.

@GossiTheDog For what it's worth, I've found it very helpful on Bing, and frankly it's the first thing since Windows 3.11 that remotely fit that bill from Microsoft.

@SupportGrapheneOS_667 @GossiTheDog I agree, I don't care to share my entire life with Microsoft, but it is helpful at problem solving.

@GossiTheDog it's even worse than that. They're fucking with this bullshit in the .NET ecosystem, and pushing 'vibe coding' hard.Literally over a decade of effort to make it open, accessible, building rapport with numerous communities, and untold hours proving .NET's real worth. This isn't just customer code; this is literally an entire ecosystem impacting over a hundred million users.Just getting pissed right down the drain.

@GossiTheDog "there's no way it-" Samsung Tizen OS. Every smart TV from Samsung is running .NET. Not just running it but very heavily dependent on it. Those idiotic smart fridges? .NET inside.And the list just goes on and on to the point where 100M devices is likely a massive underestimate.(Disclosure: I am a member of the .NET Foundation. But I don't speak for them.)
