A developer using OpenAI's GitHub Copilot says, "It feels a bit like there's a guy on the other side, which hasn't learned to code properly, but never gets the Syntax wrong, and can pattern match very well against an enormous database. This guy is often lucky, and sometimes just gets it."

He then goes on to complain about Grammarly, which he uses as a non-native English speaker, but it's not as good as GPT-3 (the underlying architecture of Copilot, trained on software source code rather than English text). "As a result of using the Copilot, I'm now terribly frustrated at any other Text Field. MacOS has a spell-checker that is a relic from the 90s, and its text-to-speech is nowhere near the Android voice assistant. How long will it take before every text field has GPT-3 autocompletion? Even more, we need a GTP-3 that keeps context across apps."

GPT-3 in every Text Input
