I signed up for Copilot’s waiting list yesterday and I am looking forward to trying it, with some skepticism.
That said, I find OpenAI’s beta APIs based on GPT-3 to be very useful (so useful that I immediately released new versions of my Common Lisp and Clojure books with examples). These APIs are so inexpensive to use and useful, that they really should be part of many developers’ standard stack: different than Copilot that seems like a gimmick (but to be fair, I haven’t tried it yet).
