>Fundamentally, there's no real difference between Copilot and a human

Fundamentally, it's absolutely OK to allow humans to do the thing X and to prohibit AI from doing it. This is what I hope will happen here (though it probably won't).

>soon many rote coding jobs will be taken away since Copilot will automate them. And that's fine

Good luck finding enough non-rote jobs to re-employ those developers. It will be an interesting reflection though when "just learn to code" turns into "just learn to lay bricks for $10 an hour".
