I dont get the hate on #GithubCopilot. We should always encourage more ecosystem diversity in the AI space, especially around agents which let you use models from multiple vendors.

I would hate to see the space consolidate around #anthropic #openai #gemini only tools.

Also, my employer can pay for the frontier agents, but Github Copilot is the only affordable one among the four (especially the highest tier), and natively integrated into #Github.

@sandipb @liberty What about the rampant IP theft (what #GitHub did/are doing is illegal in my country, UK, at English law, #CDPA 1988) and the fact they try to push liability for #GenAI induced IP violations onto the user? You haven't addressed that in your post at all. #GrandTheftAutoComplete It's a cheap trick and just about all retail banks try to do the same. The late Prof. Ross Anderson of the University of Cambridge was vocal on that last point!

@bms48 @liberty I didn’t address all that because it is unrelated to my point. Not because there are unimportant points. This is social media. Commenting on one aspect of a topic doesn’t require me to address all aspects of it to justify my post. 😀
