Github Copilot is the most useful tool I've found in a long time and having that in Jupyter Notebooks is just awesome. I've been missing that for quite some time. Great work guys!
You can also open Jupyter notebook files in VS Code, which would be another way to get AI autocomplete. I’m not enough of a Jupyter user to know whether it would make sense to use VS Code all the time.
Yeah, this is definitely a good way to access AI code completion (inline or otherwise) in Jupyter notebooks. In fact, I know some data folks who've been using Jupyter from day 1 switching to VSCode simply because their company buys a copilot license for everyone and they really miss it their Jupyter workflow.
Agree. We actually tried getting GitHub Copilot to work with Jupyter but GH doesn't have an official API. We actually took some time to reverse engineer an implementation from neovim GH Copilot extension [1] and from Zed [2] but found it too flaky and too much trouble in the end.
Meanwhile, we also found a better speed/quality tradeoff with Codestral (since it has a fill-in-the-middle version, unlike a general LLM) so we decided to go with Codestral. This is inspired by continue.dev using Codestral for tab completion :)
