"This is another variation of the High-Tech Illusion: the belief that software developers do easily automated work. Their principal work is human communication to organize the user's expressions of needs into formal procedure. That work will be necessary no matter how we change the life cycle."
With the {chattr} package, you can interact with GitHub Copilot and OpenAI's GPT models directly in RStudio.
• Chat with your models with a Shiny app that runs inside the RStudio IDE. Call it by running chattr_app()
• You can also use the chattr() function to send prompts to the LLM
I am extraordinarily annoyed by the fact that #Copilot appears to be enabled by default now in #VSCode and I can't find any way to turn it off. #dotnet#csharp
Lately I've been tinkering with a python bot to help me write #AltText for all my photographs through Copilot. I'm not really into AI but I believe this is one of the useful use cases in which AI might help.
Of course human reasoning cannot be compared but if it helps accessibility I'm all for it.
I'll post the GitHub link when after writing down some documentation
Całkiem dobry komentarz nt. generowania kodu przy pomocy #AI:
"""
Po pierwsze, pisanie kodu jest zdecydowanie łatwiejsze niż jego przegląd. Z pomocą #LLM można zautomatyzować tę łatwiejszą część pracy, jednocześnie czyniąc tę drugą jeszcze trudniejszą, bo nie będzie nikogo, kogo będzie można zapytać, dlaczego zdecydowano się zrobić X w taki sposób, dwa miesiące wcześniej. Dokumentacji albo nie będzie wcale, albo będzie niezrozumiała, albo wprost błędna.

Question for the #Linux crowd. Does anyone know of a distribution which would work on a Microshaft Surface Pro 7? Now that MS has infected my tablet with uninstallable Copilot, I would like to return their favor and uninstall Windows. Any help is appreciated!
➡️ Il semblerait que Microsoft ait commencé à installer son I.A. "CoPilot" sur les machines Windows sans vous demander votre avis, y compris sur des Windows Server : https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@sos/112274291843803661
@blindcoder If you cut out the code and paste it in again, does anything change? I have problems with #PHPStorm myself with the more recent versions, sometimes their #Intellisense (code highlighting, error reporting, warnings, refactorings etc.) seems to get stuck in a certain state, false positives or false negatives are the consequence. So I fix a problem which is underlined red and afterwards the underline stays in.
I as well tinker around with the #copilot plugin.
Just uninstalled #Microsoft#Copilot from 2 #Windows boxes using #WingetUI. Hopefully that quashes the stupid notifications that keep popping up to shove it in my face.
@craigbrownphd I'm thinking of signing up for this. I typically do a lot of coding questions (Copilot which i pay for via github) but I also do a lot of writing, idea/image generation and ideas.
How would you rank Gemini Advanced, GPT Plus and Copilot Pro
My dealings with #copilot are getting to the point where I might turn it off. When it's not outright lying confidently, it's being overly polite and constantly apologising. It's like having the worst coworker in the world.
The big problem with the ubiquitous push for #AIAssistants is the idea that I would want to talk to them if they just were a bit better.
Sometimes I don't even want to talk to real humans, so why would I ever want a fake human to be my interface to things that I can perfectly read myself?
So, my #Copilot trial just expired, and while it did cut down on some typing, it also made me feel like the quality of my code was lower, and of course it felt dirty to use it considering that it's a license whitewashing machine.
I don't think I will be paying for it, I don't think the results are worth it.
#copilot as "smart snippet/autocomplete" tool is about as good as it should be. If you find that Copilot is actually doing a good job writing your logic, or getting even close, you either (a) aren't doing very much engineering, or (b) are writing code that doesn't need to be written.
@glyph anyone who’s been in this industry knows that writing the code is the easy part. It’s maintaining and debugging code that is hard. #copilot is shockingly bad at every single attempt to fix even the smallest of bugs.
I tried to get it to catch an off by one error causing at out-of-bounds read, and it had no clue what to do. semgrep, on the other hand, pointed it out immediately.
