About

GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered development assistant designed to accelerate software workflows from the editor to the enterprise. It works directly inside popular IDEs, terminals, and GitHub itself to help developers write, understand, and improve code faster. Copilot supports multiple leading large language models, allowing users to optimize for speed, accuracy, or cost. Developers can use Copilot to complete code, explain concepts, propose edits, and validate files in real time. It also enables agent-based workflows where Copilot can autonomously handle issues, write code, and create pull requests. With seamless integration across tools, Copilot keeps developers focused without breaking their flow. GitHub Copilot is built to scale from individual developers to large organizations with enterprise-grade controls.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - It gives accurate suggestions and auto-completion almost all the time. - It works with almost all the new and old libraries and frameworks. - it gives not only obvious suggestions for auto-completion but also relevant and customized suggestions according to the project. - It is quite straightforward to use just install the extension on the code editor and it starts working like a charm.
  • I am afraid there is nothing positive to say unfortunately. It's not even close to being as good as ChatGPT.
  • - Easy to use, uses context of File currently in use and others in the project. - sometimes need some little things added, but generally can create fully working functions by just a name.
  • Guesses what code you want to generate from context. Good choices as it suggests code from what you have written. Good for tedious coding. Works seamlessly in VS Code.
  • GitHub Copilot works pretty well, and works better than I thought it would when I first decided to try it. It's snappy, works with a variety of IDEs, and is pretty accurate and efficient.

Cons

  • - One thing I noticed is if I am creating a project from scratch it does not give accurate auto-completion right from the start instead it takes time to analyze the project and then provides relevant suggestions. - Pricing can be a bit better.
  • - Doesn't reply 80% of the times - In the 20% of times it does reply it's mostly unusable code
  • - So far haven't found any. - Maybe creates a risk of relying on it to much for some people.
  • Expensive. Unable to trigger on demand. More settings/customizations would be nice.
  • Haven't used it long enough to find any red flags yet, but I will update my review if I come across any cons.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Provides answers with citations, along with source links. Acknowledges when there are disagreeing perspectives and cites both sides.
  • Web search better than Google. Copilot help with searches. Usage of multiple models like GPT4. CLAUDE. GEMINI (GOOGLE)... Easy to organize your searches. Image generation integrated. Video search integrated. Academic search integrated. Youtube only search integrated. Reddit only search integrated.
  • Really good for getting any kind of information summarized or in any other text format, with all sources for you to check if you question the answers. Better for personal use then ChatGPT.

Cons

  • Prone to factual errors. I have found this on numerous occasions by following up on the citations provided. An example: What were Dodi Fayed’s injuries? Answer says that he had a rarely-seen tear in a pulmonary vein. Checking the source cited, it is stated clearly that this was the injury sustained by Princess Diana, NOT her companion. A simple, obvious factual error like this makes me unwilling to rely on Perplexity yet.
  • Probably uses your data on searches for their training. Problems with the usage between online search and just talking with a specific LLM on a single thread (search). They probably don't care about old users as of now, basically cuz they been giving away free PP pro these lasts months.
  • It seems to learn what language I most often use. I would rather it gave me answers in the language as ask the question so I do not need to specify all other languages then my first.
