Maybe it's because I'm only using it as plan B or C (after the documentation has already failed me), but I have never gotten any usable code out of chatGPT.
And yet co-pilot is able to finish my code perfectly after I type the first few characters... even though they're the same model.
Co-pilot isn't using the same model. They're using a model that's been trained on a LOT of open-source code.
is the model open source?
Not that I'm aware of. Even if the input is public data, the actual training scripts and resulting model tend to be closed-source. Meta's one of the only major companies I know of to release their models under a somewhat-open-source license.
