Exactly. There are people around me who say “I don’t need Copilot, I’m a real software engineer” and I really don’t understand this statement. It’s like the spoon is invented but you’re still eating with your hands and claiming that “real people eat with hands”

I’ve been using Copilot for 6 months now and it’s nothing to be scared of, it’s a tool that helps you write code efficiently while also improving you as a developer by providing some code snippets that may be more efficient/clean than the way you were thinking of writing them in the first place.

I suggest every software developer to make use of these tools, not to be scared by them. I highly doubt that in near future companies will hire prompt engineers over machine learning/software engineers.
