I find ChatGPT more accessible and usable than GitHub Copilot. I did initially use Copilot when it was first released, but I found myself being interrupted by the suggestions. There were times when it was useful, but it got in the way more often than not. I’ll concede that Copilot is really good at suggesting dummy data.
With ChatGPT I tend to explore a problem and a solution - it’s more of a purposeful back-and-forth. I will often ask for example code, but even if I use it, it will most often be re-written. The key thing here is that I am stepping out of my editor to interact with ChatGPT, and that works really well for me - I’m in a different thinking state, and I find this a very productive way to work.
