Copilot is great as a 'smart auto-complete' or when you need to do pattern based drudge work... but that's not what this article is about. It's trying to sell people on copilot as a no-code tool.

The leading question is this:

>But as helpful as it is for coders, what if it enabled non-engineers to program too – by merely talking to an AI about their goals?

and it answers this in my opinion deceptively by presenting what amounts to a parlor trick. Whether copilot in general is any good or not is in my mind totally separate to this.

Yeah, I agree Copilot is absolutely not a no-code tool.
Less no-code, more low-code high-tongue tool.
