First impressions: Copilot wrote my translation files for me
· 4 min read
I am not excited about using Gen AI for software development. Not against it per se, just not terribly interested in it.
But work has been pushing us to use GenAI lately, so I've been (somewhat reluctantly) trying to incorporate it into my workflow.
A few months ago, I signed up for a ChatGPT account, used it for a few research questions, and then mostly ignored it.
This week, we all got Copilot licenses.
This post is about my initial impressions of Copilot, and a couple of small wins using it in VSCode, while working on react-i18n translation files.
