I tried using copilot for production code for the first time, I had an excel spreadsheet with a few inputs and a few dozen of cells with formulas based on those inputs that I needed as a python script
The first version used some external library to read the spreadsheet and then just query the values from the cells with formulas
I spesified that I needed those calculations as code, copilot told me that it just needed the coordinates of the cells (those were in the first prompt), I gave it the coordinates again and it said that it was missing the spreadsheet (also in the first prompt)
I'm not worried about my job (at least not because of AI, testing is the second on the chopping block right after security)
Just ten years ago I had to explain my worldview even to some of my friends, nowadays random coworkers are bringing up stuff I used to talk about if I wanted an argument
And if you are really interested in political history, go to the Egyptian exhibition to see artifacts stolen by protofascists
