Counter article: https://jadarma.github.io/blog/posts/2024/11/does-github-copilot-improve-code-quality-heres-how-we-lie-with-statistics/ about the original statistics article from Github this talk and blog post is about: https://github.blog/news-insights/research/does-github-copilot-improve-code-quality-heres-what-the-data-says/

If you rather like a reactionary video commentary to the article from The Primeagen: https://youtu.be/IxYN7DKefmI or watch on Invidious, a privacy focused web YouTube client without using YouTube directly: https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=IxYN7DKefmI

I will instead label them as “Copilot-ers” and “Control-ers”, for brevity.

Were the Copilot-ers copiloted or are they copilots? 🤔 There are probably both kinds.

They are co-copilots copiloting the copilot. There is no top level pilot involved.
