Smarter, more efficient coding: GitHub Copilot goes beyond Codex with improved AI model
Blog post from GitHub
GitHub Copilot has been enhanced with a new AI model and advanced contextual filtering, offering developers more personalized and faster code suggestions. The improved AI model, developed with collaboration from OpenAI, Microsoft Azure AI, and GitHub, surpasses the previous Codex model with a 13% reduction in latency, thus boosting productivity. The addition of sophisticated contextual filtering further refines the relevance of code completions by accounting for a developer's specific context and usage patterns, resulting in a 6% improvement in code acceptance rates. These updates not only enhance developers' efficiency but also contribute to a more satisfying work experience by minimizing disruptions and maintaining workflow continuity. GitHub is committed to further enhancing the Copilot experience and will continue to share updates to keep developers informed on upcoming advancements.
