Introduction
Writing code or text takes time, at least if you want it to be well organized and readable. But what if you could have a tool that would help you write code faster and with less effort? That’s what GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are really all about.
Before you start using an AI assistant, it’s a good idea to get a mile-high view of its capabilities and limitations. You want to see what you can and can’t use it for, or at least understand where the tool performs less well.
In this chapter, we will cover the following:
- Understanding what GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are and how they work
- Learning about Copilot’s capabilities and limits
- Installing GitHub Copilot
- Generating code completions via GitHub Copilot
