GitHub Copilot a much awaited assistant for Software Engineers has now being released

GitHub Copilot helps you write code faster and with less work. GitHub Copilot draws context from comments and code, and suggests individual lines and whole functions instantly. GitHub Copilot is powered by OpenAI Codex, a new AI system created by OpenAI. OpenAI Codex was trained on publicly available source code and natural language, so it understands both programming and human languages. The GitHub Copilot editor extension sends your comments and code to the GitHub Copilot service, which then uses OpenAI Codex to synthesise and suggest individual lines and whole functions.
The GitHub Copilot technical preview is also now available as a Visual Studio Code extension.
Artificial Intelligence continues to grow and revolutionalise various fields. You can learn more about Artificial Intelligence at HURU Schools' AI Picodegree Course.
