- Github users are doing how much they are forced to use co -pilot
- Two of the most popular discussions this year were about this.
- Microsoft says that github co -driver users are growing in number
Despite the generative strength of AI in the developer community, where it has been shown to increase productivity and increase production (although at the cost of quality, according to multiple reports), many GITHUB users want to actively avoid it.
The registration They found that among the most popular github discussions during the past year were two related to the co -driver’s blocking of the generation of problems/requests for extraction, and the inability to disable the code code reviews, none of which have been resolved.
Users are not happy with the intrusivity of Github Copilot, including the way it trains in the user code without consent.
GITHUB users don’t really want Copilot
An author of discussion, Andi McClure, has repeatedly submitted applications to eliminate or block co -driver functions in Github and VS Code, but so far has not been successful. McClure points out that the support of the community against Copilot has grown in the last six months.
Despite this, the Microsoft platform seems to have the intention of promoting more and more Genai characteristics in users. The Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella, recently revealed that Copilot now has 20 million users, pointing out a quarterly increase of 75% in business adoption.
Nadella also noted that the “Microsoft co -driver applications family has exceeded 100 million active users.” It is said that nine out of 10 Fortune 100 companies are Copilot users in Github, but the developers themselves do not seem too excited.
The developers are concerned about the “slope” generated by AI that requires a great review, its use of code with copyright without attribution, precision and correction, and also about the ethics that surrounds its effects of the community.
“Although Microsoft has been forcing the ‘question’ co -pilot in more and more places in the interface for a while, at some point in this year they reach a turning point where the mass number of people no longer wants to ignore it, where before you can turn it on and ignore or find the switch,” McClure said, “McClure said,” McClure said, “McClure said,” McClure said, “McClure said McClure, “said McClure.” The registration.
