As more and more people use co-pilot or even cursor, there is likely to be a mad increase in productivity.

But also note, there is likely to be a situation like the early days of internet where people write lots of code, but also bug ridden and unreadable code.

It will take a few years for things to return to routine.



Meh - personally I see copilot as a mild boost/auto complete++ - helps me type out stuff that's obvious in context but needs to be typed out anyway.

I've had it disabled when switching between environments and sometimes not notice for a day - depending on what I'm doing.
