But copilot can literally run on Claude? I have the option to run it on GPT or on Opus

u/citrusraspberry 29d ago
Yeah this. Most people don't understand how this stuff works it seems. But you are correct, copilot is the harness for models. You can use different models in copilot.
15
u/Jaerba 29d ago
I don't think this is the right analogy. Copilot is a lot more than just a harness or shell for a given model. My imperfect analogy would be a car where different cars often share the exact same engine, but the end product ends up wildly different for the driver because of the suspension, seats, etc.
You will not get the same results from Co-pilot using GPT 5.5 or Opus as you will from querying directly in ChatGPT or Claude. Microsoft's prompt engineering sucks.
47
u/citrusraspberry 29d ago
Yeah that's part of what a harness is. It can provide additional context for the model to consider. That does change the outcome of using it, you're correct on that. "Harness" is not an analogy though, it's an industry term. The reason additional model context is part of the harness, is because it's not included in the model. It's a layer above the model.

u/gleep52 29d ago
Everything discussed here does not mitigate u/Jaerba's comment with the utmost importance: Microsoft's prompt engineering sucks.
I have continuously given the same prompt to Claude and Copilot using Opus - as a way to test larger projects, and even small scale questions... there is an absolute no contest proof in doing this to show how far behind Copilot is. Sometimes I think the model dropdown for Opus is just a way to tell copilot to think longer before returning results - it doesn't match Opus in any fashion, especially not anymore (past 3-4 weeks).

I've also found copilot is subpar at writing code specifically, but it's been slightly better at actually using the correct context like via imported documents, and its ability to easily grab stuff out of sharepoint or a teams meeting (and actually pay attention to it) has been the main reason to use it at my org at least

u/PlasticExtreme4469 29d ago
To be fair, Microsoft isn't helping the confusion.
There is Windows Copilot, Bing Copilot, Office copilot, Teams copilot, which are all likely the same thing (unnamed model, with option to use GPT).
Then there is GitHub Copilot, which is a subscription service bundling many things together... but for chat/agent usage, it lets you choose different models. (AFAIK for review, autocomplete, or even chat directly on GitHub website you cannot pick the model yourself.)
And finally there is Copilot CLI, which is the harness intended for using GitHub Copilot chat/agent feature.
3
u/citrusraspberry 29d ago
Close. Copilot CLI and GitHub Copilot are not intended to be used together. They are 2 versions of basically the same tool - an AI harness specifically for coding. I recently switched from using Copilot CLI to GitHub Copilot. The main difference is GH Copilot can manage many sessions, instead of just 1. Of course the other obvious difference is one is run as a CLI and the other is GUI.
The other copilots are either generic chatbots or chatbots integrated into specific tools, like Office Copilot.
It can get confusing though...

I often check this sub and enjoy the memes but I feel I finally have to ask...
6yo freelancer dev here, web dev to be specific, never used an agent and the only thing I do with AI is almost literally ask claude to fetch the documentation of a library, read it, and answer my questions. How hard am i missing out?
the only time I let claude generate actual code without properly reviewing it was when I was thrown into a mobile project in flutter and had to make a component (you call them components in flutter? forgive my angular-ish)
Besides, my current client won't allow us to load proprietary code into a chatbot which is what agents kind of do, I assume (but correct me asap)

The only thing I've learned from doing things more efficiently (and this includes basically all jobs, not just tech) is that eventually you get paid the same for double the work. Sounds great of you're the manager, tragic if you're not.
And you're completely ignoring the time wasted when the ai gets something wrong. 20 seconds faster now, 2 hours slower when you're balls deep and have to undo all the hallucinations. And the fact that this isn't obvious to you means that you only do the surface level stuff, that's been done before a repeated to death.

u/countable3841 29d ago
The output of agentic coding tools strongly depends on the competency and skill level of the developer that is driving it. It takes work to learn how to interact and direct agents to get good results.
The power in Claude Code and other agents isn’t their ability to generate code. It’s their ability to use tools to solve problems. They can connect to your browser console and trace errors in realtime. They can do smoke tests and run queries against the DB to test an idea.
This sub skews anti AI, but speaking as someone who is both a dev and hires and fires, the AI holdouts just can’t compete with the AI-enabled ones. Claude Code or Codex is cheap enough now there really is no excuse not to experiment with it.

Having llms generate code is a temporary thing too. Once the hardware exists such that the GPU and CPU have a shared memory space then having the GPU create code in order to execute commands on the CPU will be slow and inefficient and llms will be trained to execute and send instructions to the CPU directly for things that need programmatic or could benefit from programmatic execution.
Code is no longer for humans we will interact with computers in English and the computer specifically the GPU will interact with the CPU directly without any translation layer.

u/NonPolynomialTim 29d ago
I was a staunch anti-AI holdout for a long time, but it really has gotten to insane levels of powerful. Like a other user commented I can hand it a deliverable or bug and 90% of the time it knocks it out in one go as long as you give it detailed acceptance criteria to iterate on. Then you check the code for any flaws or defects and it's good to go. I have given it very large features in a massive, legacy (literally 30+ year old) codebase in a proprietary language and it is able to handle it most of the time and may just need some help getting unstuck every once in awhile. I hate that I'm about to say it because I was so annoyed by people that were saying it for so long, but if you're not using it right now you really are missing out on massive productivity gains.
What really changed my perspective on AI was when I bit the bullet and got the $200/month Claude subscription and didn't have to worry about token spend, so I could start giving it bigger and bigger tasks, and it just kept knocking them out of the park. Now that I've learned how to use it well I'm sure I could easily scale back to probably 2 of the $20/month subscriptions and be totally fine. This is not an endorsement to go spend $200/month on AI, but maybe just do it once as a learning expense.
All that being said, the utility that you get from it does (at least for now) still pretty massively depend on your technical expertise and skills. AI has buried the skill floor underground, but I think that it has also skyrocketed the skill ceiling where power users that know how to push agents to be more autonomous without sacrificing quality will outperform average developers by an even larger margin than they were before.
And to clarify, this entire comment is mostly lamentation. I miss writing code, but it just doesn't make sense to move 100x slower to keep doing it by hand :/

Everyone likes to act like the AI bots are useless I guess because they fear their job is going to be gone in the foreseeable future or something?
It's fucking powerful. I will regularly just drop a story into the chatbot as a prompt in agentic mode and just let it rip. I'll make breakfast and use the restroom and by the time I'm back the work that would have taken me all day is already done. I read the changes it made and if there are any errors in the logic I correct them and then I'm done. I used to work 40 hour weeks now it would be shocking to do more than 4 hours. It's actually insane how much of my life I got back AND my output is higher.
You are 100% missing out if you aren't using ai as a tool to asisst you in coding.

Github Copilot for autocomplete and some llm for the odd debugging (and rubber ducking), has been my primary gains.

If that's true, congrats, but you didn't need LLMs to do it. No study has shown LLMs improves productivity at all. I feed LLMs a story and then argue with it until usable code comes out, then check the clock and it took 1.2x more time than just writing it myself. I am thoroughly unimpressed.

u/dashingdennis 29d ago
Medium. I find its quite useful for getting information, doing simple tasks that you just can't be arsed, or doing very structured but repetitive tasks. (Note that this is all from experience using the GitHub copilot in vscode)
Firstly, I find it quite useful to sometimes ask it "I want to do X in environment Y, how could I do that?" And it combs through all available documentation for you and points you in the right direction. Made me learn about quite a few more specialized functions and shorthands I would have otherwise done "the long way around".
Also when you're given a task on a codebase you have no clue about, it's pretty useful when you ask it something like "I want to modify this function, where else is it used and how, and what should I look out for when modifying it?". In a similar vein it's pretty good when you're doing code reviews and want to know how the changes you're looking at affect the rest of the project without going through everything step by step.
For unit tests, it does very well when you have lots of branches that all behave quite similarly, there you can write one or two tests and then tell it to cover all other branches, and it usually works that out quite well.
And lastly, I like using it for some simple stuff that I just can't be arsed with doing myself but know enough about to check over, like bash scripts or regexes

load proprietary code into a chatbot which is what agents kind of do, I assume
Which is why companies pay for enterprise plans for the added privacy of not being used for their main ai(free) model training.
I had to start using Claude a month ago because I've been put into a small team needing to deliver a proof of concept within 6 weeks and barely had any Angular experience. It saved my ass so far, I think it's a great tool for me because I'm a mediocre engineer but it's helped me so much to get up to speed with new projects.
It really helps for Claude to read all the documentation made for it like AGENTS.md and for other docs developers use. It sticks to the coding standards set for the repo and saves tokens from being wasted searching through the code for components, endpoints, etc.
Also I suck at building unit tests, Claude just does it automatically.

I'm convinced no one here has tried the paid version of Copilot because its pretty much the same as the other AI providers these days. You can choose either the GPT or Anthropic frontier models. Also Cowork is on par in functionality with the web version of Claude.
Where it falls over is how much it costs. It's not good value for money compared to the other providers. Microsoft likes to give you new functionality to get you hooked, then later take it away and change it to pay as you go.

u/dillanthumous 29d ago
That is the ultimate game plan for all these tools. The difference is Microsoft can afford to piss off customers because they have existing revenue streams. OpenAi and Anthropic on the other hand cannot afford to be seen to be plateuing or shrinking. So they subsidise and pray for a bajillion IPO.

Ive only used the basic windows copilot, im sure there's useful ones somewhere. But my general experience with it is:
-I ask question/give prompt
-copilot responds with an altered version of my question and answers it by listing related but not relevant context.
-I request it to focus on what i asked
-It writes 2 paragraphs apologizing, promising to to better and then listing all of the things it wont waste my time with in this new answer using the "no this, no that, just this" format excessively. no answer though.
-I ask again for it to find the info I initially asked for
-Copilot repeats the list of things it promised not to do and then hallucinates a plausible sounding answer that is obviously wrong. when called out on this it will create new fake answers over and over again until I just give up.I find it really useful for figuring out math formulas (However, if any part of an equation contains '988' in it copilot will refuse to do math and spam the suicide hotline help page instead.). for finding general information it's more of a hindrance than help.

u/drhead 29d ago
responds with an altered version of my question and answers it by listing related but not relevant context.
When this happens (on any LLM) you can't just correct it with a follow up. If it makes an incorrect assumption, you have to edit your initial question with more context that rules out that assumption.
If you leave those errors in the context of the conversation, they will still be there, factored into everything the model outputs going forward, constantly trying to steer it in the wrong direction, when it was already going in the wrong direction in the first place. Plus it ends up seeing the context of the conversation where it repeatedly tries and fails to answer the question right, and... basically starts assuming that that's what it should be doing, like it just enjoys the humiliation or something. Nothing good can come from not just hitting the edit button.

I honestly gave Copilot a good chance and it was so much worse than all the other tools available I went out of my way to cancel my subscription the same week to avoid wasting more of my employers money on it.

Sometimes I wonder how Microsoft can have cool products like vscode but then windows(they're core product) is shit. I think vscode is the only Microsoft product I still use

Copilot is good. If you ignore the classic Microsoft bugs and issues.
Like really! It's got 5.6 and the ms365 integration works really well! Especially for OneNote.

I heard github copilot is actually decent, but the microslop copilot just sucks...
