That's how I thought it was supposed to be used. It's "copilot" not "autopilot". I don't need nor want it to write whole functions for me.

Company ran a trial for it, and it worked really well for generating boilerplate code following our existing system design. Sometimes it makes mistakes, but during the trial it was a rare occurence

The company is giving it to us all for free next year, hope it doesn't negatively affect hiring though...
