How do you know what deserves credit and what doesn't, when the tool doesn't tell you? How do I know whether you had the valuable insight to craft an artful line, or ot was handed to you and you glued it to another and another?

When you write a program using a library, there is no such ambiguity or credit-washing. You wrote your app, the library authors wrote the library.

copilot is essentially stripping that. You get to not only write your app, but look like, and even, apparently, feel like, you produced everything that went into it. All that stuff that was done by someone else and gifted to you, well that's all just the tools you the real artist used. It's absurd to credit a paint brush eh?
