Absolutely - maybe not in immediate term but certainly it's coming.

I've been experimenting with GitHub Copilot in the past few days, the result is remarkable. Yes it's not quite ChatGPT but it's in the same vein, AI, machine learning etc.

It seems better with "boiler plate" like code, but hey it's a super charged auto complete and I'm impressed with its quality.

It can only get better from here.

Aren't they based on the same underlying OpenAI technology?

I believe so, but the integration with IDE works amazingly well. It's non-intrusive and just ... works.

You don't have to do anything, just install and it will start suggesting code as you work on it.

It's very promising.
