Mastering AI-Assisted Development: From Helper to Companion
In an era where coding tools are rapidly evolving, GitHub Copilot Pro stands out as a game-changer. After years of programming from BASIC to today’s advanced AI tools, the author reflects on how this tool has transitioned from a basic autocomplete feature to a comprehensive coding assistant.
“This year’s version has turned it from a mere autocomplete helper into a true coding companion.”
With its latest updates, Copilot now includes:
- Multi-model access
- Integrated chat features
- Budget-aware premium requests
However, navigating the new pricing structures is just as crucial as mastering syntax. The landscape now has a variety of CLI options such as Claude Code and ChatGPT Codex CLI, which further complicate budgeting decisions.
💭 Personal note: While CLI tools offer powerful capabilities, the author emphasizes the practical benefits of IDE integrations for daily coding. Having AI assistance directly in the coding environment greatly enhances productivity.
