I think that this is a really cool project.

Personally, I am working at a financial institution which is regulated, and the legal team + cyber are still evaluating if there would be any problems that could arise with CoPilot.

The way the Europe is heading towards AI regulation, Italy has already banned chatGPT. It seems likely that there would be a threat to Copilot as well in the Europe.

So these kind of solutions would make a ton of sense wrt organisations adopting this.

However as a developer who has used copilot before, here are my 2 cents:

The copilot makes a lot of sense, wrt auto completion and code generation, because it understands the current context of code.

It would be a friction for the developers if we are expecting them to use the user interface this project comes with.

It would be great for this project to go in the direction of the following:

- Ability for the developers to train the model with our custom projects, so it can give suggestions wrt to our style of coding

- Extensions for popular Editors like VIM, VS Code, IntelliJ etc

Happy to share more further info if needed :)
