Copilot is great but I think the media overstates how much productivity gain it's giving software engineers. Let's just say it's true that it's writing ~50% of the code but it's not the same as only need half the size of engineering team - most of our time is spent on not writing code.

Feels to me like more of an accelerant of the sovereign individual thesis. My side projects move 10x faster.

And oops I meant chatGPT 4. Co pilot makes me like 1.1x faster maybe

Yeah, GPT-4 allows to move much faster on side projects.
