GitHub Copilot Discussions

GitHub Copilot is powered by a combination of large language models (LLMs), including a customized version of OpenAI’s GPT that translates natural language to code and additional models from Microsoft and GitHub to further hone and improve upon results. Available as an extension for Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, Neovim, and the JetBrains suite of integrated development environments (IDEs), GitHub Copilot works alongside developers in their preferred editor, where they can either type as they go or write comments to get coding suggestions. As a result, developers spend less time creating boilerplate and repetitive code patterns, and more time on what matters: building great software. GitHub Copilot was developed with security, privacy, and responsibility in mind. GitHub Copilot for Business never retains customer code from prompts or suggestions. Only users who are on an individual license and choose to opt-in will be retained. Additionally, users can enable a mechanism that blocks suggestions that match public code, even if the likelihood of matches is low.
