Have you tried googling some of the generated code? The tictactoe seems like an example where the AI ran on the natural language part (so the code comments) and the associated code is copied. I would actually prefer an AI to recommend me the full link to SO or GH so I can read the rest of the comments, or even contribute to OSS if the suggestion is faulty. All the copilot examples I saw don't modify the syntax tree much
I haven’t searched it up but I will. I was under the impression that the tool was actually generating code but I think instead of generating code, the tools just suggests code snippets from public repos. So it’s just an over-hyped search engine Lol.
yeah I got the same feeling. Most devs think naming variables is hard, and this tool just has too many "good" names. Now "good" names mostly come from review processes, where the functionality was unclear before. Let us know what you find out :)
