Taking Flight with Copilot

Over the next five years, AI-powered tools likely will be helping developers in many diverse tasks. For example, such models may used to improve code review, directing reviewers parts of a change where review is most needed or even directly providing feedback on changes. Models as Codex suggest fixes for defects code, build failures, failing tests. These are able write tests automatically, quality and downstream reliability distributed systems. This study Copilot shows that spend more time reviewing than actually writing code. As integrated into software development tasks, developer roles shift so spent assessing suggestions related task doing itself.
